Copying your OS as-is from partitions.
« on: September 17, 2009, 09:56:56 PM »
I know there is a way, other than format and re-install your programs. I just want to keep all my settings/OS and move them to another partition. What program would you guys recommend? I'm also looking for a program that would allow me to split/combine partitions per HDD (like Magic Partition 8, which doesn't work for Vista 64-bit).

If you're looking for software, I guess you can try Acronis - iirc it's a partitioning software that works under x64 version of Windows as well.

You can always download a bootable linux distro such as Knoppix, and run Qtparted. It can resize NTFS partitions, both larger and smaller, and not damage the data.

The best part is the cost--free.

Acronis True Image, Disk Director
or
Paragon Partition Manager

You can obtain the from the internet.
All you have to do is study it out. Just study it out.

Acronis should work well for your needs.
