I am running Windows 7 in bootcamp on a macbook pro. I was wondering if Ghost 15 would work? I have a friend that says it works fine but I've asked Norton and they say it wont work with bootcamp, so I am a bit confused. I am looking for a program that will make system images of my windows 7 hard drive incase it crashes or something. I thought Norton Ghost would be perfect but now I don't know if it will work or not, very confused.
Thanks,
Tony

Download the trial and give it a whirl.

Will Macs with Boot Camp boot a DOS-based CD? If not, that might be where you run into issues since while Ghost should run OK within a booted Windows installation, you will not be able to recover the system drive unless you can boot from the recovery CD.

It's not a DOS based CD, it's windows based.
It would have to support booting to a CD, how else would you install windows into it?

Yes, I can boot from a CD. I installed Windows 7 this way.

Here is the trial if you want to try it.
Here is the Ghost recovery disk
You should burn that to a CD and boot to it and make sure you can access the windows partition.
Sadly, Ghost doesn't support HFS+ partitions, only EXT2 and 3 for Non-Windows file formats.
