My current hard drive is 80gb but I only have 10gb left. I want to swap for a larger drive but I am worry because my machine only supports one drive and I don't have a system boot disc. Is there any software that allows me to swap my information from the old drive to a new drive. Plus what size should I get and will it be difficult to do.

Whoops! This is the desktop forum, so I assume that you have a desktop.
We still need to know the model number. Maybe you can install 2 hard drives at once. At least you can do this for the file transfer.
A computer with those specifications should be able to take a 3.5" form factor ATA/100 or ATA/133 hard drive. Get one with at least 8MB cache and 7200 rpm.
NOTE: That computer is likely to be too old to be able to use an SATA hard drive without adding extra hardware.
