Couldn't find this in the FAQs
i have just bought a seagate 80gig drive to replace the 40 gig in my sons PC.
I want to remove the 40gig and put it into another machine.
The 40 is partitioned into 2 so want to save all the files and operating system if i can.
I would like to know the procedure for swapping everything on to the 80 without having to reinstall everything .
Can you help ?

Cheers
Warren
