I have norton ghost 15 (italian version) installed on my pc (windows xp pro) and I wanted to clone the hard disk that I am running into another empty hard disk (is this operation called "hot clone"?)...
Now I haven't with me the pc, so I can't remember the menus on the software... I chosen the clone option ("Copying one hard drive to another hard drive"), the source disk is the disk I am running (norton ghost is installed on this disk and is runnind on the version of windows that I want to clone), the destination disk is an empty disk connected on my pc via usb...
after the clone, I installed the destination disk on my pc, windows seems to start and load, but it stop loading before showing the users or the desktop, I can see only the windows logo, the mouse moves... if I reinstall the old disk, windows loads normally...
where is the problem? is it possible to do a hot clone, or must I use another pc (with norton ghost), with both hard disks connected via usb?
All I want is to have a clone disk, so If my actual hard disk crashes, I simply have to change the hard disks (I am using a removable rack tray)
