This is a real problem.=C2=A0 I don't envy you.=C2=A0 Last I had to
rebuild a computer, it took<br>
me about 4 days, to get the old software reloaded and everything
configured.<br><br>

drive to a 2nd drive.=C2=A0 You will have to reinstall most

So the best way to make a clone of the original hard drive.<br><br>
There was/is a program called GHOST that would let you make a clone of a
drive.<br>
The 1st generations required that the 2 drives (source and destination)
be the <br>
same size.=C2=A0 Later generations lifted that restriction as long as the
destination was <br>
equal to or greater than the source drive.<br><br>
This used to be the best way to make a backup of your system and or set
up a <br>
new hard drive.<br><br>
I've been looking for a good/recient version of GHOST to use to make a
backup<br>
of my working HD.=C2=A0 Everyonce in a while I'll spend an hour or so
looking up GHOST<br>
and or cloning a HD.=C2=A0 So far I haven't found much that I thought
