[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1095673, member: 24098"] Just pick up one of the $20 adapters I mentioned previously. Trust me, if you're a PC tech, you will most definitely use it again. Carbon Copy Cloner and SuperDuper! are both free (the latter having a paid for version that does incremental backups, but you won't need to do that for this purpose). Trust me, it will save you and your friend a ton of time and headaches. Once you get the system cloned and running on the new drive, just open up Boot Camp Assistant and let it walk you through the partitioning. When it's finished, it will prompt you to insert the Windows disc and then reboot and boot off the Windows disc. It even supplies documentation that it will prompt you to print out (hint: read it!).
