Fairly new computer. After a C-drive failure I purchased Ghost. Installed OK and apparently does back up the c-drive. But, whenever I allow it to run, it locks up the computer with the drive light on. I've allowed it as long as 20 hours before I took the computer back by turning the power off.
All drivers are up to date and the computer otherwise seems to run OK although once in a while it will not boot and will have to be cycled with the power switch to wake it up. But that has been present since day on. I attribute it to this version of XP Pro which I've had for 4 years or so. It sometimes had the same problem on the previous computer.
Any ideas? I am concerned that one of these days, the power off routine will take out some data on the disk.
