Do a GOOGLE search for "How to clone a drive" you will get a lot of hits.

What program are you using? Acronis True Image or Norton GHOST have complete operator's guides with the package, and a GUI to lead you by the nose. It's really very simple.

Hi Johnwill,
I only new about Nortans Ghost, i haven't bought the software as yet, i was just trying to learn all about doing it before i went out to buy the software, so i would have a bit of an idea what to do.
You are right it sounds simple what i have read so far, but to a person who'd rather work my way through a 15 speed road ranger gear box up and down a step mountain, now thats pretty easy to me, but i have never tried to do ghost on a computor before, it will be 200% concentration for me,

no kidding.
all the best

Acronis True Image has a trial version, so you can try it for free.
