Ghosting Advice Needed

Grommit · 01-09-2007, 01:03 PM

I have built a PC with a 160gb HDD

I then used Partition Magic to make the C: drive 20 GB and deleted the D: drive..

When I try to Ghostgast this onto a 80GB Laptop it says it's gonna take 132 hours? (only i ghost option 152 GB disk) (and its on the same gig switch)

I then try to Local Partition to Image for the C: to Image to the D: ( reactivated D

but it won't highlight the C; patition as the source..

Any ideas on the best way forward

If your using a Ghost Task or Ghost Cast to pull the image you will need to change the settings because when you partition a hard drive you need to set in the task that its DISK1 but also PARTITION1(C

or it will do the whole drive and the both partitions (C

and (D

.

Do i do this after I have booted to Ghost but just before I start the Ghosting ?

You do this when your setting up the task which is before.

My next problem is that the up and down arrows keep freezing... it's a Siemmens Fujitsu PC with a USB keyboards (no ps2) ..

How can I over ride this ?
