Hi John,
I use a program by VCOM called "Copy Commander" to clone drives. It
loads and runs from a bootable CD and and makes sector for sector copies
of about any operating system from DOS through XP, Linux etc.
One note. For Win XP NTFS drives (and perhaps 2K also), you MUST mark
the "Make New SID" block to insure that the new Hard drive will boot
properly. I bought it at Staples and it was VERY reasonably priced.
