From: "Ned F. Reiter" Glenn, Partition Magic hasn't failed me yet. I've used it for years and never lost a bit of data. If the drive letters get changed, I'll just change them back. I have mostly assigned drive letters anyway so I expect to have to do that. I have a second bootable XP on the first drive, so I will copy those partitions over first (those letters are C:, D:,E:, so shouldn't change) then when I can boot to that XP install, I'll copy the other drive over. If all fails, then I'll get Ghost. -- -- Ned -- nreiter_AT_attglobal_DOT_net Association of Shareware Professionals developer member http://www.asp-shareware.org/ "Glenn Meadows" wrote in message news:3e4e675f{at}w3.nls.net... > Ned, > > I'd personally get a copy of Ghost to copy the drives.
