Okay I have a hard drive that "click, click, click,gruuuuuuu" but it still works, so far, it has 4 partitions on it! c,d,e, and f. So I'm going to buy a slightly larger disk, so what program do I use to copy all the partitions, and boot sector(Important)? I just want to copy the Disk, I don't want to copy each partition individually! I just want it to boot and press a button, and done.

You need a copy of Norton Ghost which can make an 'image' of your hard drive and make an exact copy of it onto another drive (including the boot sector).
There are other similar products also available.

You can buy Norton System Works 2001 for $12 from Directdeals.com. It includes some version of Norton Ghost but no manual for that price. The help files provide the info you need to use it.

and you can download the manual from here:
ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/products/norton_systemworks/ver4.0/manuals/

Most drive makers have a FREE utility either with the retail new drive or downloadable from their web site. Will set up ,partition, format and copy old drive to new. Very easy, too.
