    Question Mark

    Theres two hardrives in a computer here. One is 20GB and the other is 80GB. Windows XP is installed on the 20GB and theres about 10GB of data on the 80GB. I need to move XP off the 20GB and onto the 80GB without corrupting anything, so this includes copying the boot sector over and having it reconfigured on the 80GB.
    Can Norton Ghost accomplish this?

    Q: You ask me why I need to move XP off the 20GB hardrive?

    A: Because the hardrive runs very strange and slow. The computer lags badly because of it. The system specs are pretty good except for the 20GB that can't even run XP's Disk Error Check due to it's problems.
    The computer runs, but abnormally laggy when you load software. 3D games lag like hell too, even with the Nvidia 128mb Geforce card in there that used to run better nice on another system that was scraped.

    of course and it's not mine.
    Her hardrive has a physical problem, because it is on and off normal or extremely slow. No viruses or anything like that, trust me.
