subject: Copy laptop partition

In general how can I copy a partition from a laptop.  If this were a 
desktop I would plug in another HDD and use PM to copy the partition, 
probably while booted from a DOS floppy.

In this particular case it is a new laptop that of course came with 
WinXP.  My initial inclination is to clean the HDD and start fresh.  I 
need a Win system, but 98SE has served so far, and from what little I 
have seen of XP I don't think it is anything I need.  So far it seems 
like a lot of extra trouble for nothing.  However, I would like to 
copy the HDD in case I change my mind.

In the event you might suggest the LAN, at the moment my attempts to 
get XP to see the LAN have a router object in Local Network, but no 
other box or cable modem that is connected to the router.  It seems to 
have the correct workgroup name.  I never have seen a router object 
before.

I think the unit has about every type of IO there is.

TY
Ray
