Are you sure this is what you want to do? If the problem isn't the disk hardware but is somewhere in Windows' innards you will only succeed in duplicating it on the new drive, assuming you create no new problems in the process.
I'd go for a reinstall. Tedious but is worth doing regularly to delint a Windows system (up to and incl XP - I avoided Vista and don't know 7 well enough yet to opine authoritatively).
