Hi folks,
I want to save an image of the disk partition containing an XP
installation (with a lot
of software installed). I'd like to be able to install this image to
another computer so
I won't have to reinstall all the software.

Is this possible? What software should I use to create the image? Once
the image is
created, and stored on a hard disk, how do I install it?

Is there a way to leave out a folder (eg.: My Documents) so that the
image will be smaller?

thanks in advance...



Is this machine being used concurrently with the original? If so, do you
have a second XP licence?
