Re: Cloning a Drive
In another Forum they suggested that I first shrink My IDE Drive and then make a second partition for a "Backup" Then transfer the backup to the new drive. A little more Complicated than that, but you get the gist of it. For some reason I cannot shrink it enough.

Other suggestions were to use Norton's "Ghost" or Acronis "Easy Migrate" or "True Image" I might have a copy of "Ghost" I'd have to buy "True Image"

No hurry, I''l get it sorted. Thanks for your help

And I could just re-install, nut then there are all the updates, not just for Vista, but Office 2007, MS Flight Sim X and add-on's. COD4, the list goes on.

Just lazy mostly.

Thanks Again.
