If you're copying a windows image to a new machine you need to sysprep 
it first, after that you can dd from one volume to another.
For example, dd if=wintest1.liquidweb.com of=wintest2.liquidweb.com bs=1M

As long as the two volumes are the same size it should work fine.  You 
can even mount them using ntfs-3g and make changes to the SIF file if 
you need to.
