- I dont have image files on the back up drive.. 66GB of .fbf files... Any ideas??
Ghost saved the drive information in an image file. Whatever you named your backup you would see *.gho, *001.gho, *002.gho. That is your whole hard drive in a spanned image file. Ghost Explorer is what you need to open and view these images and you would be able to extract files as your would from a zip file. There are no restore points as you would think using Windows Restore. Only the raw hard drive information as it appears on your dive now. I'm not sure if Ghost Explorer is provided with the home edition as I'm used to the enterprise for my work.
let me know if this helps

1st drive full, so used Norton14 drive copy on to a usb drive. Now with drives swaped around, the drive in laptop (labeled as G:) boots a follows.
1) logon screen, 2) Preparing Desktop and then 3) a blank desktop (blue in color). And that's it.
Now when I also hook up the usb drive (which now contains the old C: drive) we boot up just fine because we now have the drive defined as drive C: connected to system.
How do we change the drive letters with out hoseing everything up to allow the new drive to become the C: boot drive. Then I can format the old drive for data backup use.
thank you.

I loaded the norton removal tool and upon running file i got message: "before you can run removal tool you need to remove norton ghost by going to the add/remove programs." Problem is that there is no listing of any norton products are listed in add/remove programs. I understand that references must exist in the registry of Ghost but i was hoping that the norton removal tool would clean this up. Is there a "higher strength" version of this removal tool?

Ghost 14 has an annoying characteristic that Ghost 10 - which I just upgraded from - did not have. I run an "auto incremental recovery point" job each night at 4AM. Normally the created file is in the area of 200MB but now and then the file will come in at 2 or 3 or 4GB. There is no consolidation here - this is just a regular incremental. The implication is that a large volume of files got modified and so Ghost picked them up into the incremental. I see no reason for this to be the case. My PC operates pretty much as it did when Ghost 10 was installed and this never happened with 10. I think Ghost 14 is getting confused by something. Any thoughts? Is this a bug or a side effect of something else or what? Anyone else seeing this behavior? Ideas would be appreciated.
