[QUOTENorton Ghost is almost just as expensive as Systemworks (In my country anyways). [/B][/QUOTE]
I bought Norton Systemwork Pro with Ghost 2002 for $28 including shipping off ebay. it was an OEM version, Norton CD but no printed documention, but it is on the CD.
Ghost 2001 wouldn't work with my install on a NTFS partition. Backed up the partition and have it in safe storage.
Ghost pulled my rear end out of the fire on two occasions with my daughter 400 miles away at school. The first time was shortly after school started when somehow she came down with 1000+ infected files from the Nimda virus. Her Norton AV definitions were only a few days old, but that was old enough. I talked her through a reformat on a ME machine, and installation of the Ghost image and she was back up as good as new within an hour.
The second time was just recently when something clobbered her NTLDR file on a Win2k box. This time she just restored the NTLDR, BOOT.INI, and NTDETECT.COM files and she was back up and running.
Without a Ghost image, I would have been driving up to Minnesota to rescue her. As it was, a little inconvenience.
The only issue I have with both Ghost 2001 (ver. 6.5 ) and Ghost 2002 (ver 7.0) is neither work as promissed in writing directly to a CD burner. I have to write the image to a second drive or partition or even across my local network to another PC. Then I compile it into 600mb chunks and write it off to CDs.
Buy Ghost or other imaging program. You won't be sorry.
