So, if I understand correctly, the restored image is working fine, but you are getting a Ghost error log that occurred during the restore process that is reported when you first boot back to Windows.

And you have discovered two log entries found in the Windows *Event Viewer* that is found either under *Start-Programs-Administrative Tools-Event Viewer*, and then clicking on *System*, or by right clicking *My Computer-Manage* and when the *Computer Management* console comes up, then choosing *System Tools-Event Viewer-System*--these occur one time, and after logging out, re-booting, and logging back in--the errors do not re-occur--correct?
So, you posted the Ghost error log--this is the only error reported that I can see:

When creating a Ghost image, there is an opportunity to include, in the image file, a description of the image--basically a text message. According to the error *Message*, that description must be less than 255 characters. Did you use the *Description* function when you created the image? Did you use more than 255 characters?
Regardless, that error would not be a *critical* error--it's just an internal *housekeeping* error that would have no effect on the validity of the restored image.
However, Ghost 2003 is notorious for reporting an inappropriate error when an error has occurred--the program is not very good at detective work and analyzing the real nature of the problem--so it reports an incorrect error in response to having detected that *something* went wrong. But, if everything else is working okay, then it would appear that the error was not *critical*.

The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load: SafDskNT
Here's a couple references:
http://www.freefixer.com/library/file/77803/http://systemexplorer.net/file-database/file/safdsknt-sysDo you have this file on your system? (My system does not have this file.) Does the file *Properties* match the file version mentioned in the above references? Do you know what program it is associated with--i.e. what program did you install that installed this driver?
Does *PC Dynamics, Inc.* or *SafeHouse Encryption Driver* ring any bells?

Here is the error in Event viewer:
The IP address lease 1for the Network Card with network address has been denied by the DHCP server (The DHCP Server sent a DHCPNACK message)......(Event ID 1002)
I really don't know anything about that error, but *I just had to reboot the computer and relogin and the Browser worked fine.*--so, I guess it's not an ongoing problem.
The above two Event Log entries may have something to do with the fact that when Ghost 2003 restores an image, the HDD ID is zeroed, and WinXP has to re-establish the HDD ID. Any function that might depend on that ID might have to be re-set as well, and maybe that's what the need for a second re-boot is all about. But, I don't know that for sure.
As long as there are no ongoing errors occurring in the Event Viewer, you probably don't have to worry.
