Clonezilla is ok. Also try to use Backup\Restore process if copy fails. Drive Backup 9.0 Express can do backup\restore: http://www.paragon-software.com/home/db-express/download.html
On a lucky occasion I have also been able to use windows xcopy to just copy the files manually to a newly formatted disk and the computer booted. Or try XXcopy which is even better: http://www.xxcopy.com/inde
Syntax: xxcopy [Source] [Destination] /e/c/h/k/v/r/y
(some switches are not necessary but it won't hurt to use all of them.)
