Copying entire hard disk contents

I've run out of space on my hard disk; its only very small.
I've got a new hard disk, how do I copy the entire contents of my
original hard disk onto the new one?
Would it still be bootable?

Thanks

yes, make the bootable floppy with the program, connect both hard
drives to motherboard, start it up and boot it from floppy, then make a
partition to partition clone. It will boot exactly like the old one did.

Acronis True Image is another well-known bit of commercial software
that does the same thing.

BTW, what is the old hard drive (size and mfr) and new hard drive, and
what operating system are you using?

Are you trying to preserve mainly data, or a combination of installed
data and programs/applications?

Reason I ask is that if you are running Win9x and want to preserve
primarily data, you may be better off with a fresh install instead of
cloning your old drive. If you have a Maxtor drive, you can use
Maxblast (free) to clone your old drive.

There are also some freeware tools like xxcopy that will do the same
thing, but are a little more involved and may not work with XP.
