Symantec has upgraded Norton Ghost 2003.  After you run liveupdate go to your folder where Ghost is installed and read the readme.txt file to view the changes.

Use Symantec Live Update.

Install Ghost to a friend's computer who has an internet connection?

Write to Symantec and ask them to send you the update?

*the* Blinky? .. as in David Blink? 

In reference to manually updating Ghost 2003:

It CAN be done.

I was not able to get live update to work.  Maybe Symantec's server was down or since this is an older product it is no longer supported.  However after installing the *huge* Ghost 9.0, I got second thoughts because I have read of people having problems cloning a new HDD (thats what I need it for) entirely from within windows.  Since the registry is constantly
updating, my limited experience tells me the "virtual partition" (seaprate OS from the drive you want to clone) may be a better way.

I got these from the Princeton server:

ng2003b789_en.x86
ng2003b793_en.x86


http://pcsystems.princeton.edu/nav/

They are nothing more than .zip files without the extension.  Rename them with a .zip extension and they will open in Winzip.

The 793 update has all the files (newer versions) than the
789 update except one. Extract all the files to a temp folder.
You can use the "ghostlu.exe" file which will copy the files to your ghost program folder, or you can manually copy the files.  That's all the ghostlu.exe does.

WARNING:  Before doing this, you must exit ghost, AND end its process(s) in Task Manager. There is a .dll file, "vpartition.dll" , among others which will not copy if it is locked or in use by a process.  However there is one process which I could not end in Task Manager even though I was not running ghost, a background process which loads on bootup.

PC mag has a utility "Enditall" which gives you complete control over running processes, and which will allow you to kill all the ghost programs.  I used it successfully to end what Task manager refused to.  (don't do this if Ghost is running).

Then copy over the files from the update .zips to your Ghost program folder.  There was one file in the 789 update which was missing from the 793, in any case I just made sure I copied over (overwrite) the files with the most recent dates.

Then you need to reboot the PC so the background ghost processes will start with the new files.

Hope this helps!

I know it may be a lost cause.. 
but I’m desperate to find the above files.

I’m bit annoyed that I could not "save" the live updates to a CD.
Now Symantec has stopped support for Ghost 2003, live update states Ghost 2003 is up-to-date. Not!  My version is 2003.775.

Really hope someone out there has these files available *crosses fingers

Thanks in advance.
