    Expanding a hard drive from 60GB to a 200GB

    You may create another partition (on 140 Gb), personally I prefer Disk Director for that. I think it's the most convenient partition manager: you could resize, copy, and move partitions without losing data; create and delete partitions of any type. Also it has cool intuitive windows wizard...

    Ghosting two different size hard drives

    I've never use Ghost, but I definitely know that True Image can create image HDD and restore it on partition, which has enough free space (it could be bigger, but mustn't be smaller then partition that you image). I restored image of my old HDD (40Gb) onto new (80Gb) and everything was clear...

    Backup query (wrong forum - I know)

    Well, I can recommend you to use this data backup storage software: create an image of your "C" HDD and keep one copy on "D" another on bootable CD (it takes not much space due to compression), as I always do. You may recover image without load Windows. I think it's the best and fast way to...

    Well, you may reinstall your service pack, but as I understand you dont't have Italian version. Try to change the language of installing program: Control panel-> regional and language option-> advanced switch Italian. probably it would help you, but for sure you need reinstall service pack.

    As I understand you have 200gb HDD without any partition. If it's clean you may create 2 partitions: 35Gb for OS (active) and 165Gb for other data. Create an image of your old HDD, and restore it onto first partition of new HDD. Switch new HDD to the master and get out your old HDD and that's...

    hard drive data extraction

    I think the best solution of the problem is: link up an old HDD and new one into new PC (master-slave) then create an image of your old HDD, using hard drive cloning. And just unpack it on new HDD. You won't have to reinstall Windows, as backup file will contain the exact copy of a hard disk...
