I'm after some software that'll clone my old HD to my new one, so that I can do whatever I need to recover it without making changes to the original on the other drive.

In a nutshell - to copy the hard drive EXACTLY in situ to the new one.

All software solutions I've found are either crippled in some way, or require you to fork out money, which I don't want to, since it's already costing me quite a bit for a replacement disk. It's driving me up the wall!

Can anyone recommend some free solutions for doing this - it needs to run from a bootable CD, since Windows is corrupted on the other machine.

ADMIN EDIT (Russ) - I'm sure you know why I removed that last line.
