Move Vista installation?

Hi,

Recently i put in a fresh install of vista. I finally got my media network working the way i want with media center, well close anyways. I now cannot access media outside of my Public folder.

Now i would normally just move my documents into the public folder but i have tons of backed-up dvd's and music, totaling more than the hard-drive my vista is on.

So... I would like to move my install of Vista over to my backup hard drive, which is huge. This way i can access all my media on my network via the Public folder.

Does anyone know how i would go about doing this?

Thanks...

I've never done that but you probably could use Acronis True Image for that.
It comes with a free 15 day full function trial.

Ok great thanks! I hope this transfers everything, because i just finished installing vista today. I'd hate to have to do it all over again on that drive instead.
