 I just replaced my stepson's hard drive with a larger one. I
 used Norton ghost to do it, the 32 bit version that runs in
 windows. It's the enterprise edition.

 Normally I use my old version that runs only in dos, but his
 computer only has a provision for 1 HD, and that version is not
 real good with USB. If he had a cable with two plugs, or I could
 find my spare, I could have done it easily. I was in a hurry so
 I took three times as long to do it than if I had just waited to
 find the right cable. Dang!

 However, with Ghost, made an image, then wrote it to the new
 drive. And he got the new drive running immediatly, and the
 image is stored on a second partition.
