Just a thought, if you use BOTH hard-drive you can have windows + backups on one and games on the other. Cant hurt and will save you if your HD dies at an inconvinient moment. oh wait the original is dying - well, put it as the second drive and just use it for backups.the easiest way to copy a drive to another is XCOPY32, an old dos command. cant remember the syntax tho. and the saves are only 800k so you could get away with floppies if you wanted. cheaper.
