I'm going from a 20 gig IBM  Model IC25N020ATCS04-0
 to a 40 gig Samsung model MP0402H
I used Disk Image 7 to use Disk to Disk copy after formatting the 40 gig, when i pop in the 40 gig it asks for a system disk.
My laptop is a Toshiba TE2000 P3 1Gig with 1 gig RAM

- I dont know if it was a 100% copy, I had to swap out the main hard drive so the only problem i'd see is if the copy didnt set it to be bootable as well.
Is that possible?

did you copy your operation system onto your new hard drive? Must of the time they a hidden file that the manufacture does not want you to find. If you did the you may have to go to your bios and make sure that it's set to boot from your e dr1ive first because that 's where the operating system is on.

- if you don't set your laptop to boot from the e drive it's looking for the operation system on the hard drive.
