It said that when i did it through cmd and My Computer. I don't know if this will help but at first when i tried to reformat my old hardrive (I moved it to the slave and booted off the new one) I got an error that said I can't format it because it is in use. To respond to Tarrant64, I didn't prepare for the ghost in any other way then following nortons steps. This system has been the best backup method I've found in 20 years of computing, and has bailed my butt out of trouble more than once.

In response to Les' comment above, Bob Davis writes to say: I tried restoring the registry from the command prompt, but alas nothing. Then it creates a new, blank registry, and carries on with that. Windows will look at the system, scan the registry, realizes its duplicated and deems it's corrupt. When cloning, you must remove the cloned drive before rebooting into Windows. Failure to do so before rebooting will annihilate your registry. Your section on Cloning makes no mention of removing the newly created drive from the system.

Now when i start my cpu it automatically attempts to run windows and hangs right before the log in screen. It wouldn't let me format through windows because it said the drive was in use so i did it through partition magic. This same thing happend to except i was a moron.

But I cannot get logged on to this system. I can access the drive from another computer on the network running Windows 98 so I know it's booted up. The system starts and then hangs on the logon screen just before it gives you the list of users. Removed the first drive and made the new drive the primary.
