Not really. The Ghost 8.2 image you have created will be fine. Go back into the Recovery Environment and run a "Check".
Local > Check > Image file.

Yes. Boot to the Ghost CD and use the Ghost 8.2 prog.
Local > Disk > From image

We can sort out the Ghost 10 problems when you have the new HD working.

Brian,EP,NightOwl....

My wife loves you all.............

Walla everything is ticking like a clock. Brian, it was painless when I checked the integrity and simply did a restore per your reply. I think if I had understood what you all were trying to tell me I could have done this whole deal in a couple hours. I just want to thank everyone and after I get done working today I will attempt to create a "hot image" if those are the right words, from ghost 10. I will post again on my results for that.

THANKS AGAIN
Harold

ps. NightOwl.... Yes, I now understand what Pesky and you where trying to tell me about in the beginning between 8.2 and 10 files.

If I remember correctly, Pleonasm said something to the effect that he maintained Norton Ghost 10 for running daily in normal fashion inside Windows XP -

yet by booting into the Windows Preinstalled Environment mode he could continue to use Norton Ghost Ver 8.2 for "partition-to-image" or
"disk-to-image" operations without modification or adjustment

.

I suppose some would regard that as "having-your-cake-and-eating-it-too" Roll Eyes

Well, It has been awhile since my last post on the results of my wife's computer. I have run ghost 10 without a hitch on both types of backup, so I guess we assume that something was really bad on the old hard drive that was causing the errors. We would like to thank all for the help in fixing these problems.

Till next time Grin
