I didn't realize that you were going to transfer everything from one HD to another, sounds like a good way to do it if you get it to work. I use Laplink to do that by installing Laplink then clone directly from one drive to another. Works well but only if you have Laplink of course.

I do that, but the best way and fastest way is to make an 'image' of a new HD then 'restore' it to a new HD. No installation of windows or any programs, settings, etc is needed if you do that. It 'restores' automatically to another HD or your newly formatted existing drive in case of a HD or OS failure. You run the program, and you don't need to do or install anything, the new HD is created sector by sector as the old one was. -Clint God Bless Us All & Happy New Year Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com http://ComputerHardware-ConsumerElectronics.com sales@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fax: 209-882-9602 TechAssist Administration http://tech-assist.org techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 4orpheus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (alternates) orpheuscomputing@xxxxxxxxx (PLEASE include our previous correspondence if replying to this email!!) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Myers" <jr.myers@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 8:36 AM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Ghost 2001 users? Wouldn't you be better off using a CD-RW disk so you can keep it up to date? I don't do a full HD backup but do keep a backup of Quickbooks and Quicken using the built in backup command. I would think Ghost would work well that way since the CD-RW is set up to be used as a hard drive.

I Can't get that far. I made the FLOPPY boot disk, and boot from that and got to the 'interface' in DOS, but there are too many options there I know nothing about. I cannot find the simple info on just how to get it started, how to start copying to cdr disks! 108 page manual and nothing in it about all these 'options' I see or simply how to get started. -Clint God Bless Us All & Happy New Year Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com http://ComputerHardware-ConsumerElectronics.com sales@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fax: 209-882-9602 TechAssist Administration http://tech-assist.org techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 4orpheus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (alternates) orpheuscomputing@xxxxxxxxx (PLEASE include our previous correspondence if replying to this email!!) ----- Original Message ----- From: "redwitch01" <redwitch01@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 8:46 AM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Ghost 2001 users? No, but did you make the first disk in the set bootable that is it can run from the time that your computer is turned on before the OS starts ----- Original Message ----- From: "OrpheusComputing.com Repair" <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2002 4:10 AM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Ghost 2001 users? > > That didn't come out right.
