Vista - How to transfer installed Vista from one hard drive to another?

I'm getting a new hard drive and have been running vista on my current hard
drive for awhile and have my programs setup on it and don't want the hassle
of starting over. I'm wondering if there's a way that I can just move the
vista installation to my new hard drive. All help is appreciated. Thankyou.

It's very nice of Acronis to give a fully functional 15-day trial of Migrate
Easy 7.0. A one day trial would have been fine!

Jeff,
You might consider investing in Acronis True Image 11 Home. You can get a
copy at Best Buy for $39.95. One way to do this is to: Connect your new
drive, run Acronis 11 stand alone (Boot up disk). Copy all the files to
your new from your old to new HD. Reinstall your new drive as boot up drive
and away you go.

Jeff:

The link below talks about cloning the hard drive for just such an event. Mentioned in this thread is a commercial program called Acronis True Image. You can download copy here: Acronis True Image - Vista

Here's the discussion:

Clone Vista onto new larger drive

I hope this helps.

i found a web site with info on doing it with something included on the
Vista DVD. It's more complicated than running the Acronis program but just
to let everyone know there is something in Vista that allows you to
duplicate an install.

I've used Acronis for several years, now. It's a good product, which has
gotten me out of serious difficulties when my hard drives have gone south.
It's saved me tons of time in restoring everything. I know you'll be
delighted with it. I am currently using Acronis 11.

Hi,

I have a question. Is Acronis True Image 11 Home works with Vista Home
Premium x64 ?

Thank you in advance
Best regards

Yes. It is an excellent choice for Vista Home Premium x64. That is what my
wife uses on her HP laptop running VHP x64. Have no fear.
