Acronis True Image...

ta mate, thats the one i was thinking of buying. have you used it yourself, is it easy to use?

Ghost imo

EDIT: have no exp with arconis, will try the 15 day trial, but ghosts dos version on a bootable cd has served me for years and years and has cloned probably over 200 drives now perfectly.

Another vote for acronis true image. Very easy to use, simple step-by-step instructions.

Id o with acronis its very easy to use and reliable, and it just works.

IMO True Image & Disk Director are 2 essential programs you should have

I used Acronis to migrate my laptop drive - quick and efficient - really simple to use - can't recommend it highly enough (didn't work in the event, but that was due to the Laptop, not the programme!)
