Best way is like Jason says and use Ghost.
Take the drive out of the laptop and put into a pc with the new drive on
their own ribbon cable on the secondary IDE channel.
Boot the pc and run Ghost to copy the small drive to the large one.
Then put the large drive into the laptop and there you go.
I use Ghost on all machines I build for people.
I partition the disk into C: D: & E:=20
C: is NTFS and is used for the OS and all programs
D: is FAT32 and is used for the swapfile and a Ghost backup of the C: when
I've finished installing all software they need, creating all users and
setup all e-mail accounts.
E: is NTFS also and is used for all users 'My Documents' and all drivers
needed for the system.
Hope this helps.
Darren

Why not use Norton Ghost I recently bought a original CD on ebay for
=A37-5=

Ghost your original drive to a USB hard drive (shouldn=92t be difficult to
borrow one) or look round the computer fairs etc

Replace the original drive and then ghost back onto the new drive

already in the system. Being this is a notebook I have no way of=20
adding a 2nd drive. Any suggestions?
Cheers
