Question on these backups...... I need to install a bigger drive on my
system but haven't done so because I hate to reinstall Windoze and every
single one of my applications.
Is there a way to say "Here, back up my C: drive--all of it--and put it back
on my new (bigger) drive"?
Thanks for the info

My problem with anything from Symantec/Norton is, I was very disappointed by
Norton some years ago. I was also disappointed when Symantec bought
PowerQuest. I hesitated to buy DriveImage because it was owned by Symantec.
I bought it separately because I don't want the rest of the Norton package
on my machine. You can buy DI separately for less money and not have the
rest of the Norton "crap" bogging down your machine.

backup of my hard drive
IMO, your best bet is a program called "Drive Image" by PowerQuest.

Drive Image is now owned by Symantec who bought Power Quest. The
latest version of Drive Image has been incorporated in the latest
version of Norton Ghost (Ghost 9) which works very well.
