I am using NG9 and am not sure how to do this.
I have a 400 GB drive with three partitions. 1. NTFS 2. FAT 3. NTFS.  I want to copy/clone these over to a Smaller drive.  98% of the 400GB drive is not used. I want to put it on a a number of drives from 13GB to 200GB as extra backups.  Partition #1 is the active drive and I am running XP.  I have to get this done fast and I got lost  in the terminology. I am new fairly new to NG 9. Can someone help me out with this.  Thank you very much

Thank you for the advise. I could use a little more help with this, if anyone is still reading. I managed to find a drive that was the same size and attempted to make a copy. As we know, NG9 won't copy a whole drive that has more than one partition in one step.  So I tried a number of things but in the end I couldn't get a correct copy.  First off the source drive has three partitions. Here is how they are laid out.

#1  Primary 31.14GB NTFS Active
#2  Extended, Logical, FAT 2.0 GB
#3  Extended, Logical, NTFS 4.13GB

The problems are in setting up the destination drive.  I am doing this in WinXP.  I think I got the first Partition correct. First off I deleted the old partitions.  Then I created a primary partition of 31.14GB and marked it active. I did not format the drive or give it a drive letter. (is that correct?) I then used  NG9 to restore the drive.  It seemed to work but no drive letter which I think at this point is ok?

But the two logical drives I couldn't seem to restore.  How do I prep the restore drive for the 2nd and 3rd partition? 
Here is what I tried.  I created an extended partition that used the rest of the drive.  I then created  a logical drive with 2.0 GB in size.  And another with 4.13GB in size which filled out the drive. (They are only 40GB drives)
I then tried NG restore and it didn't work. I got nothing showing in the WinXP manage drives. No volume name and no data filled in. I then tried the same thing above but I tried to format with the correct file system (FAT for #2 and NTFS for #3) and give them a volume name.  Then NG restore and it didn't match the restore drive in the amount of data and I couldn't access it.  So what am I doing wrong.  Is there anywhere that shows the steps you follow to do something like this?  The download for the NG9 manual no longer works at the Norton site.  I read through some of this site but it was never clear about this or I missed it. 
Any help with this would be appreciated.  It is for a POS system in a restaurant and it has to work correctly or I am shit.  Thank you very much

russ,
See my forum " Problems using NG-14 in migrate XP to a new HD".
I got similar problem : i use the new hd to cater for my existing XP, a new parition for upgrade to Windows 7, n of course a new parition for data.
I am not selling the Spotmau, but this stuff can also
help u to resize (reduce yr unused volume in drive) yr old hd (including the OS C:\ drive).
Once u resize the existing hd, u may use the NG or ... to clone/copy to a new hd.
Try yr luck!!

Last question (I hope)  I  now have a correct copy so far.  I haven't booted it yet but I think it might boot.  Here is the thing I am concerned about.  I did all of the copy/clone stuff in Windows XP.  I am going to put this drive in a NT computer, as the main and only drive.   The drive at the moments has the drive letters H: I: J: When I put it in the NT setup, how do I get the drive to come up C:D:E:.  I was reading that XP writes the drive letter into the drive.  Do I do the FIX MBR and if I do where do I run it from?  Do I let the computer boot into NT? What if it won't boot.  This computer has different hardware and I need to run the motherboard driver disk somehow on the new computer.  The last partition has NT_SETUP and I hope it  has all of the NT Files to rebuild the boot partition. I am not the familiar with NT so I hope this all works.  Thanks again, again. Russ
