Removing my message as Allen has already made the things clear.
Sorry for the post.

I have done all that (many times).
Let me reword my drive setup:
There are three (3) physical drives.
2 internal "C" and "D"
1 external [USB] with 2 partitions "G" and "H"
I want only "C"and "D" backed up to "H"
I don't want "G" backed up at all.
When I set it up I only highlight "C" and "D" to be backed up.
I keep getting the red X on Ghost in the system tray (at risk).
Hi MikeC,
Please do the following:
1.Start Norton Ghost.
2. On the Status tab, select your H drive from the list.
3. Under the Status reporting Status, click Customize status reporting.
4. Select No Status reporting.
5. Click Ok.
I think this is what you need.

Hi MikeC,
Sorry I guess I missed the part about you having two partitions on the backup drive, my apologies.
There is one other thing you should do as well. Windows has this habit of sometimes assigning different drive letters to removable drives such as USB when you unplug it and plug it back in later. This happens especially when you have multiple USB devices where they can be plugged in, in different combinations.
If Windows ever assigns a different drive letter to your USB backup drive, this will confuse Ghost. You should go into the Windows Disk Management and assign a static drive letter to the two partitions on your USB drive. Doing this should prevent Windows from ever assigning something different to it.
Please mark the relevant post which you believe contained the solution by clicking on the green Solution button that only you can see. This will allow others to know the problem is solved and quickly get to the solution when they search the forums.
