 Hi,

 You cannot restore your XP or 2000 operating system with Ghost 2003. It
 won't backup these operating systems correctly to permit a full restore
from
 a backup. You can backup and restore your data, but in the case of a real
 emergency such as a hard disk failure, you'll have to install the operating
 system itself and then Ghost 2003, and finally your backed-up data and
 program files.

 Ghost 9 will permit a full restore of your operating system for Windows XP
 and 2000 without the need to re-install the operating system first.
 Unfortunately the full restore environment is basically "DOS", so you won't
 have speech unless you have a DOS screen reader and a speech device that
 functions in a true DOS environment.
