three answers

#1 the long & very complicated one 
	Get a second hard disk (of the same size or greater)
	& use ghost!
	I've recently attempted this & will say straight off
	that it's not worth the grief!
#2 Not sure if this will work with NTFS, But
	check out the info on fips
#3 short & sweet.  
	NO! you can't do it without PM or some variant of an fdisk 
	type proggie
