 Norton Ghost 9.0 September 19, 2005
Great Product! Easy to use. Backup and restore to an external hard drive work great. I have only tried file recovery from a full backup but that went flawlessly.

I purchased NG9.0 to back up my Hard drives,and copy a old harddrive to a new bigger drive.
Backing up harddrive was great,but copying harddrives turned out to be quit a challange. Heres what happened.
Here is my system: P4,with 1GB ram,Windows XP sp2,2 hardrives,3 hotswappable usb drives.
1. My computer was shipped with a 40GB harddrive,and all though this little harddrive worked great for a time,it quickly filled up.
2. I found a Maxtor 200GB harddrive ata100/133 from TigerDirect.
3. NG9.0 told me how to prepare the new harddrive,by first setting it as a slave.
4. I then installed the slave harddrive in my system.
(a) I formatted the New Harddrive in diskmanagement utility in
win xp sp2
5. I used the "copy harddrive" function in NG9.0
I set up the copy with the following settings:
(X) check source for file system errors
(X) check destination for file system errors
(X) set drive active for booting OS
(X) copy MBR
6. After NG9.0 copied the drive,i then took out the New drive,and configured it to be a master
a) setting the New drive as Master in bios also
7. I took out the old harddrive,and placed it in storage.
8. Upon booting the new Harddrive,Windows Xp simply stayed at the
welcome screen.I got no "user account" prompt.
9. I had to put the old harddrive back in my computer to trouble shoot my system.
10. Upon going to NG9.0 website for online help,i found the knowledge database,and found how to reset my MBR.
a) Make a bootable diskette that has the FDISK command on it.
b) Swap out Harddrives again,taking the old drive out,putting
back to new drive (making new drive the master).
c) set bios to boot from the floppy with the fdisk command on it
d) type this command at dos prompt "fdisk /MBR" this reset the MBR.
11. Upon doing the above,my new harddrive was recongized by windows,and it booted up with no problem.
12. Next i had to goto DiskManagement to re-letter my drives back
so that windows could find the programs that i had copied(example windows had re-letter my other storage devices with new drive letters,my programs still had the old drive letters,so i had to re-letter them so the programs would load from the correct path).
13. NG9.0 works good,but the manual should have be printed with
all this information in it,this would have saved me much time,and frustation.
Thus only 4 stars instead of 5.
