HD mess

I have a Compaq Presario 8000T with an 80gb ide hard drive. I want to
transfer the drive's contents to my 200gb hd which has my previous
windows installation. The 200gb hd is attached to a promise ata133
controller, while the 80 is connected to the onboard ide. The idea
would be to boot the windows installation I have on the 80gb on the
200gb hd. What would be the easiest way to accomplish this?

Norton Ghost would do it.

Seagate's SeaTools will do it, even if neither drive is a Seagate. Seatools is
a free download. Used it many times in situations similar to yours. Never a
problem... Ben Myers
