How do I transplant my Windows install to a new HD?

[MDesigner]

Here's the situation. I've got an 80GB ATA/133 drive with Windows XP on it, and a bunch of programs installed, etc. I just got a new 160GB SATA drive that I want to replace my old 80GB with. The thing is, I JUST reformatted about a couple weeks ago, and I don't want to have to reformat again.. it's a hassle. I was wondering if I could somehow take a perfect image of the 80GB drive, and copy that to my 160GB (I can have them both in the same machine at the same time, obviously). So basically the 160GB will be bootable, and work perfectly.

List any freeware options if possible. If not possible... list commercial software. This would be ideal, rather than reformatting.

Thanks!

Thanks. Wound up using Seagate's tool that came with the HD.. worked great.

in the future, please use the search function. I believe that was the intent behind AUX's post. This question has been asked 3-4 times in the last week.
