hi again
well ,guys
just let me know if it was available or not
i've searched too much with no avail , couldn't find anything to tell about this and even testing this was dissappointed
i just heard there's some settings to do using device manager , and this will make the image to work on any different hardware pc
all what i need now is to get sure first if this is true or false , this will enable me to do more accurate research to find out how ..
if any one is sure of the answer i just need to know if yes or no
thanks in advance
best regards

My main family PC with XP Home Edition went underwater during Hurricane Katrina, but I have multiple Ghost 2003 "disk-to-image" files safely stored on multiple external HDDs. Needless to say, this issue now becomes absolutely critical for me.

Thank you for those sentiments, but bear in mind that on a scale of 1-to-10 for grief, misery, loss, deprivation, bleak future, et cetera my family is registering no more than 0.35 - I personally know of others exceeding 9.75 or better in my community.
