Disk copying software?

Is there such a thing that will let me copy the contents of one hard disk completely, byte-for-byte, to another physical disk? My search so far says no. I need something simple that can be run from within windows (no optical or floppy drive in machine). And I would prefer it if it didnt resize the 1...

Nero PMA failure error.

All of a sudden nero is spitting out pma failure error at the end of the lead out on dvd burns. I searched, but most everyone says this is a bug with v 6.3.1.15, but I am using 6.3.1.10 which I'm told does not have this bug. Not sure what causes this problem. It has only started doing this recently.

Yeah, I downloaded the extension and it works. It will only let you import one at a time unless you export the bookmarks from IE to a single file. This was my problem. Its all sorted now though :)

Firefox bookmark question

I just recently redid my whole bookmark list (I have literally thousands. lol). I'd like to import them into firefox (I like IE better for managing my favorites). Now, I know I can go to manage bookmarks...import. But, it seems it will only let you import a firefox-generated bookmark list this way. ...

I tried the drive in another external enclosure; same issue. I tried it inside another machine, same problem. Its the drive :( Any reason why a perfectly good less than a month old drive should up and decide to do this??? Should I try a firmware update? This is the third dvd burner I've bought in th...

Nero wont burn any faster than 1x speed!!!

It seems I'm plagued when it comes to burning dvd's :( Nero now is only letting me burn at 1x speed. Its not a media problem either I've tried several different ones, all 4x or 8x capable. It just started doing this recently. It always let me burn at full speed before. Any ideas what could be going ...

Mass editing ID3 tags????????

Does anyone know of any software out there that will allow me to mass edit ID3 tags? Like, as in, I select say 1000 mp3s and edit the ID3 tags of all of them at once to list them as the same artist, or album, etc? I recently picked up a creative zen mp3 player and I absolutely DETEST the way it orga...
