    Windows BackUp

    I have an older 20 GB Harddrive. I was wondering if I could install Windows on it and all my needed programs and then clone it onto my 200GB Seagate Harddrive. Therefore wouldnt ahve to format Windows and install my stuff again and again every time. Anyone know of any prgrams I could use for this?

    Check the Seagate website. They have downloads available to clone one drive to another.

    Norton Ghost is also another popular program that I use.

    Norton Ghost looks like a good solution. I didnt find anything on the seagate website though. Could u link me to it?

    You should get a CD with the Seagate drive, for use in setting up the drive. That CD may contain cloning software.

    You will need the DOS-based DiscWizard:

    Be careful - if the new drive is SATA, you must install the SATA drivers in Windows before the cloning.
