OK, so having re-installed Windows via the normal means and your own personal 
data, are you saying that you were able to restore programmes you'd installed 
from backup, rather than putting them in from scratch?

Sorry if my understanding is a bit dim on this.

  Hi Carol

  The machine never crashed it was just cluttered and little irritations had 
started to happen so I did a full back up onto my second drive in 2 sections. 
The data first and then everything else. The data I would need but the rest was 
for insurance as I'd never done a re-install before. I reformatted my C drive 
and re-installed Win XP and all my applications. Then I did the data. Back-ups 
and restore of the data were done in Windows so my Supernova was operational 
all the time. I don't know what Ghost does that the WinXP back up facility 
doesn't do except for some advanced stuff I wouldn't understand anyway. So my 
copy of Ghost stays where it is, in the cupboard.

    Roger,

    So you're saying you re-installed Windows, then did an XP backup.  Then, 
you crashed . . . or what!  

    I can see you could re-install anything if you hadn't crashed badly but, if 
you can't get into the system, what then?

      I do all my backups using the Windows XP facility and it works in Windows 
so screen readers are fully functional. I have done full copies of my hard 
drives when I did a clean re-install and lost absolutely nothing. I do in fact 
have a copy of Ghost and just do not like it.

        Please keep it on list, if you don't mind.

          Hi,

          Can you tell me off list just how you work the program?

          And what version you are using.
