You were saying the C: partition was too small to install W2K, so I figured
that makes a CD backup an option. With compression you could get over a gig
of used disk onto a single CD so you might get by with just 2 CD's

I've used drive image with W2K (I have a site license for an older version)
which was why I mentioned it. If they don't sell the older versions anymore
then pop on one of the file sharing networks and see if you can find a
version that supports NT there. If you do, purchase the current version and
use the older one.

the one I use is driveimage (deploycenter is the full package name) version
5, I know that works with W2K and I believe I've used it with NT4 as well.

Other than that, Glenn or some of the other folks here might have a
suggestion of something they've used.
