If you bought a retail version [versus OEM] hard drive it probably will come
with software that will let you do that fairly easily such as Maxblast for
Maxtor hard drives and so can Norton Ghost. The link below is to utilities
that are available from major hard drive manufacturers. Also be sure backup
any important data files "just in case" to cdrom/DVD disks. Operating
systems and applications can always be replaced but not your data files.
With XP you can also use "File and Settings Transfer Wizard to backup your
files and settings that are in your user profile but I would not depend on
that alone to backup my important data files. --- Steve
