| 484476 | 2006-09-14 02:44:00 | Hi all, I have windows xp and 4gigs of data which i would like to make an image file for back-up. I have tried Norton ghost as i read in this forum that it is pretty good. I have installed the Norton ghost and did a back-up of 4gig data on 1 of the partitions and burnt it to DVD-R. To my surprise Norton ghost created an ghost of my harddrive but not an image. Nyway which is still fine by me as long as i can recover the data when my computer crashes. So what progam can i use when my windows crashes to replace the 4gig of data from the DVD-R. Does that make sense or am i going in the wrong direction? Thanks heaps. |

To my surprise Norton ghost created an ghost of my harddrive but not an image ah......yes ghost creates an IMAGE on dvd or cd NOT a COPY .......you can use ghost explorer to extract anything from that image if you want selectively or use ghost to reinstate that image......if you want a COPY then you'll have to write that IMAGE onto a partition or drive..... |
