Neil,

I always use Robocopy from the Windows Resource Kit to copy
entire installations. To do that I boot from a different
installation if I have another one. If not, I boot BartPE (from
a USB memory stick in my case, but you can boot it from a CD).

You could even use XCOPY, but Robocopy has a few subtle
advantages.

You can also do a backup and a restore.
