Does any know a good tool to use in order to make an ISO out of a Hard Drive? I have a secondary hard drive that used to be my prior Windows install XP that i left intact so i can retrieve files if needed. I want to make an ISO out of it so i can run it in a VM.

I tried a few of those except Deamon tools, the problem is I beleive the make ISO out of CDs/DVDs not hard drives. If anyone has been able to do it with them let me know, i might have missed something..

It is supposed to create a .vhd file from the physical drive that can be run in MS Virtual PC. I have been playing with Virtual PC lately but have not had a chance to test this feature of WinImage.
