Norton Ghost 14 and restoring to another PC

Other Norton Products/Services

I am dealing with a similar issue that I read about in this thread:

I have an old eMachine and am trying to restore it to a newer Dell.   It is on XP Pro and I have the installation  disks with SP2 on it.   When  finished the restore, I got the expected "could not start normally" message and followed the recommendation to do an in-place upgrade.    However, when I loaded the disk, my only options were:

  • To set up Windows XP now, press ENTER.
  • To repair a Windows XP installation using Recover Console, press R. 
  • To quit Setup without installing Windows XP, press F3.

There is no upgrade option at all it seems.   I selected R as also was suggested based on the Microsoft article here:

Unfortunately, after I select the hard drive I want to repair and it asks me for the Admin password, there are no further instructions.  It simply gives me a black screen with C:\WINDOWS

 

Am I missing something in the repair reinstall process?
