I need to copy the entire contents of one HD to another, OS and all. I have Drive Image Pro, and Win Image but I dont think Ive ever used them before.
Is there a way to do it from dos or any other way?

I need to do this tonight, so any help you all can give will really be appreciated.
Thanks!
 
do you have the utility disk that cam ewith your hard drvies?

theirs is usually an option on the disk that lets you copy an entire partition from one HD to the other
 
Just install Drive Image and follow the directions. It's easy.
Drive Image works from DOS, makes a bit for bit copy. Allow about an hour/8GB if copying from hdd-hdd.
I have never used it to clone a drive, just for backup, which works great. I don't know if it makes a bootable copy. Most DOS utilitys will copy, but in the 8.3 format and it really makes a mess of the naming, Drive Image does not do this. If your C drive is large enough, you could make a image in a new folder and then restore it on your new drive.
