I did a ghost image of my C-Drive as a FAT32 using Nortons Ghost. I have since converted the C-Drive to NTFS. Will this ghost image still work OK if I need to restore my operating system (Windows XP Pro)?

I have two hard drives connected to my system. I will refer to them as A and B. I had previously taken a Ghost image of drive A and wanted to restore this image to the drive. However, both the drive were connected to the system when the restore occurred and the image got restored to drive B. Hence I have lost the data I had on drive B. The operating system in use is Windows XP. The version of Ghost used is Norton Ghost 2001
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a user who had tons of sensitive data not backed up. She was running windows XP and its NTFS. The problem is the Error told her to try to recover so she grabbed the factory recovery CD which in turn wiped evwerything out (though I bet it prompted her on that she won't admit it said anything about it all being wiped out). Needless to say her PC is back to factory defaults with NONE of her data she had on it. What is a good program that can go in there and try and recover this information right now she is crying and I have about 5 people wanting me to "do something". Main criteria - recovers from underneath a ghosted image, must work with NTFS and allow for file extraction.

I've an old pc pointing to one of my drive using incremental drive backup(networked). And i'm using Norton Ghost 9 which claims to support bootup. Now i'm worried bout file system, does any of you had experience with ghost where it only able to read from FAT32? cause the drive keeping the backup is in NTFS. I'm sorry if discussion anything related to sysmantec is not welcome. But i tot i might get more experts idea here.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having this odd graphics glitch on my desktop after I recovered the OS from a system32 file corruption. I used the recovery console to repair the corrupted .dll file, and everything is working properly now except that every once in a while when I right click to bring up an options window on anything (desktop or program icon) and then left click on one of the available options, a ghost image of the option I clicked will remain on the desktop. It doenst interfere with program functionality, but is just more of an eyesore. I have updated all my drivers I can think of and run scandisk on the RAID setup.

I need to transfer data, settings and programs from one notebook to another. Should I expect trouble if I make a ghost image of the hard drive on the original notebook, image it on to the new notebook and install all the drivers for the new notebook? There are a few large programs and alot of critical data and settings, so if this method works, I would like to do it this way. The old notebook will have Mandrake installed, so the XP license will continue to only be used on one computer.

So began to try a different approach to recover in time of problem. But have become confused about which is the better approach. Something like Go Back or something like Ghost or Acronis True Image. I am not locked into any of those-but they seem to be most often mentioned.

I have tried twice and received failures about my HD having bad sectors OR locked sectors. I ran check disc with repair and did not find any problems. Re-ran check disc from the boot disc that came with the application and found no problems with the disc. Tried again for a backup and received the same error. I am thinking it is one of the programs I have loaded has a locked sector or one of my processes that loads during boot is the problem?
