Quote:"... I want to replace the HD on my laptop. I put the new drive in a USB enclosure..."
If I were in your situation and inclined to do a
"one-shot-to-get-off-the-dime", I would use the installation CD for Norton Ghost 10.0 to simply boot from the CD itself (which readily allows one to boot into a Windows XP Preinstalled Environment) and immediately engage the legacy Norton Ghost Clone
"cold-imaging" procedures by following the path
'Recover > Recover Data on My Computer > Recover using a legacy Ghost image'
which has the side benefit of bypassing both USB mass-storage device and SATA HDD glitches frequently encountered with DOS-dependent Ghost 2003. In essence, this procedure uses
restoreghost.exe
(an alternate name for
ghost32.exe
) to allow a
"whole-disk-to-whole-disk" Ghost Clone. Although the Destination HDD is in an external USB device, I would recommend disengaging it prior rebooting just as a matter of form.
Be advised this procedure is both incompatible with - and to a large extent unrelated to - the "hot-imaging" Ghost 9, Ghost 10.0, or Save & Restore products.
