How do I copy a networked PC so I can replace it with a new one?

I have a PC in a department that is running very slow.  I'd like defrag as that has fixed some of the problems I have had here, but it has taken up to 4 hours to do.  This department cannot go with without a PC for that long.  I'd like to make a clone, then swap out pc's and then diagnose.  What would be the best solution?

The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution

  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you.
