Okay, So I Picked Up this Laptop from the Pawn Shop...
#1
... for U$125.  It's a Toshiba C665D series laptop.  Certainly not the best out there.  However, as this laptop is in pristine condition, it is a huge step up from my busted up old Toshiba A665D laptop.  Seriously, I think the last owner got it NRFB from a Walmart that was overstocked on the damn things and had it for all of one month before his kid accidentally deactivated the touch-pad and hocked it thinking it was broken.  Yeesh.
Anyhow, busted up old laptop has a 775 GB hard drive in it, with all my documents (on a separate, non-system partition), and partitioned to dual-boot with Ubuntu...  New laptop has a 300 GB hard drive... and a barely yet touched OEM Install of Windows 7...
I think you can see where I'm going with this.
For those that don't... The basic idea is to blank my current Windows system partition in the larger drive and copy over the newer installation in all its virgin glory.... Then install the larger hard drive in the unbroken laptop.
All that said... can anyone recommend a utility that will handle this even with the differing partition sizes?
