This is the situation : i've got two hard diskes, the master is divided in 3 partitions. On the thirth partition i have put a norton ghost image of the first partition.
But when i want to restore the first partition with this image, i 1) can't chose a partition, only a hard disk and 2) can't restore a hard disk with the image on it.
the two hard disks are IDE

What can i do to use this image without burning it onto a dvd ?

I use windows XP

Dear All,

I would recommend that you stay away from Ghost 9.0 to mirror a hard drive (if you want to install a bigger drive for example without doing a complete windows install). I tried three times with
Ghost 9.0 and it failed each time. Windows would not boot the new drive. Norton says they know the software is flawed, and recommends various solutions, none of which worked for me. Then I downloaded the trial verion of CasperXP, and the new drive that I mirrored it worked the first time, and booted just like the old drive. I suggest that you avoid Ghost, and use either CasperXP or Acronis. Both have trial/freeware.
