It's only 40GB capacity so it's not like totally gargantuan

Yes. Look up clonezilla.
I'm unsure if it'll clone onto an external drive, but if you can pop your laptop drive into a desktop and have a spare 40gb drive, it'll work.

Or you could just go into your C drive and manually move all the folders inside. That'll ensure you get all your files and stuff, but obviously you can't boot off of the drive because your registry and stuff won't be intact. It's the easiest way to do it though, and you still get all your stuff.
