Need to find easy (for me) way to transfer HD image to new HD. Laptop.
Posted by JohnF on October 6th, 2005


I'm having trouble thinking this week, What is the easiest way to
transfer (ghost) my old laptop drive to the new one? I don't have an
external drive but am connected to a network. I can't figure out how
to create a new partition on my desk comp in an already formatted and
in use NTFS drive. The only other thing I can think to do is put
another drive in the desktop and image to that from the laptop. I have
an adaptor to hook a laptop drive to an IDE so I guess I could do that
and use Ghost.

Any other ideas or links

TIA

Sorry, but why don't you just need to move your own data files?

it sounds like you don't need the OS or applications, so you don't need
a drive imaging program.
You just need to copy your own files, right?

Nada, I need to move the whole image to the new drive. I don't want to
have to reload all the garbage I have loaded on the small drive, just
want to move everything over to the new drive since there's only room
for 1 drive in the laptop
