Norton Ghost-XP
Has anyone ever used Norton Ghost to clone a hard drive?? , i have 2 hard drives , and i want to clone/mirror the contents of my 60gig to my 250gig , i have tried and it transfers all the desktop/programs/email settings , basically everything ,EXCEPT 2 items , the System Info(start/program files/accessories/system tools/system info) all it shows is the drive(F) and nothing else , no motherboard etc , etc ,
and it will not boot unless the other drive(60gig) is attached it hangs at the Windows load screen (where the strobe lights run across the screen under the Windows-XP logo)( so basically the boot sector or whatever files are needed to launch Windows ,is missing As long as the other hd is attached it will run and function, but my main reason for doing this was to use this drive for my main drive and use the 60 for my backup , (should one of the drives fail ,i can boot to the other and recover any data ,etc) , anyway , i read the booklet, and went to Symantic website and looked at everything i could find on issues, but found nothing with my problem ,and everything the books/manuals said to do i either did or could not locate the items they referred to , (tools for example) , also this is now part of my Norton System Works , so i guess the functions dont work the same as they do as a stand alone program , but it still should do the same thing , so "how do i get EVERYTHING EXACTLY thats on my 60 gig to clone/mirror to the 250 gig , so it will be a EXACT copy and fully functional system I called their Tech Support on the phone and spent 1 1/2 hrs on hold before i got to a tech, then he told me to try to reinstall it then call back, well i reinstalled and called, and spent 3 1/2 hrs on hold (listening to elevator music)waiting for a tech to answer the phone and got tired of waiting, , i have emailed them and havnt gotten a reponse , so im looking elsewhere for answers what exactly am i supposed to do to get it to copy/mirror EVERYTHING EXACTLY ??? without tearing my hair out!
