Bruce Have you thought of a Image copy program. Company a couple of years ago, they had it where all systems created from a master image. Want to Save Hassle and Money? Imagine this: Your existing hard drive is cramped and too small for all the applications you want on it. So you decide to move all your applications and data to a new, larger drive. If you do it the old way, GET READY FOR A HASSLE! The following table shows what you will have to do, and when you are finished, the new drive probably will not work! But, with DriveUp, upgrading or cloning a drive is a breeze. Just two easy steps, and the rest is handled automatically. It couldn't be easier.
