Re: [H] DDO question

Thanks, I'll go look to see what that is.

They want to get a Netbook to tide them over, till they save up,
so I think we can drop more replies unless anyone wants to discuss
buggy whips grin  I have not thought about DDOs for 16 years...

While they loved the old machine, I pointed out it was like throwing
good money down a hole in the ground.

It is totally amazing it is still running... It has a 1995 6G HD running XP...
(Who-da thought...???)

I have refused to use DDOs for the last 16 years so this is a legitimate 
question.


IF a person is forced to use a DDO for their hard drive, can they boot 
to an

Acronis bootable CD and restore an Image file from an older hard drive from
the SAME physical hardware.

As in: they want to clone to a bigger HD NOT supported by the BIOS from
one that IS, --  in the same Laptop?)

Sorry if this is a buggy whip question, but the person has no money...
