I especially liked this part. “Some have reported far more serious problems, including damage to their hard disk's boot sector.” Really, this from a new you beaut expensive programme from a leading software company. You sort of half expect it with freeware but not from a leading software house. Billy, skinning this cat is not as straightforward as I would have hoped. Seems we have a selection of plastic knives! :D Cheers Bob |

| 227561 | 2004-04-11 07:25:00 | Well Bob, I just read all that horror stuff and it seems that the common factor is the use of CDs for backup storage. I use a second hard drive to store my images which is much faster, and I also use a Dos boot disk and the Dos interface. It doesn't take long to get the hang of it, and I've never had an image failure or a rewrite failure. I have used Ghost Personal Edition 5.1, Ghost 2001 and currently use Ghost 2003. Maybe some of the problems reported had their basis in hardware issues? Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 227564 | 2004-04-27 00:04:00 | Get clone max, put it on one bootible floppy and restart the computer, it will copy everything super fast but the new HD will have a patation the same size as the small HD so you will have to resize with you fav program after the transfer. www.pcinspector.de Rob ;\ |
