Most hd manu have a free utility on their sites to do just this. Provided
you follow instructions it usually proceeded OK.
An alternative is to use the trial version of Acronis to clone the drive,
once again follow instructions
PS allways a good idea to backup data, first.

I'm sure I'm not the first person to ask this. I want to replace my C:
drive
with a minimum of bother.
Ideally, I'd like to install the new drive to the IDE 1 connector, run a
miracle program that copies everything over - including system and program
installations - then remove the existing IDE 0 drive and replace it with
the
new one.
That would make the process simple and painless. Therefore, it is unlikely
to be possible. What's the next best way?
The "Files and Settings Transfer Wizard" doesn't seem to work very well.
