NORTON GHOST 2003 freeze

I have an issue with norton ghost 2003.The problem is that when i want to make a .gho file for further cloning norton ghost freezes.I read several things i should do like cutting RAM.I have a PC running windows XP motherboard asus p5pkl with HDD 2 x 250 and 1 GB ram.Any settings i should configure so i can make clones from my hdd ir gho file?

 

 

ljupco,

 

Are you using Ghost 2003 completely from a boot disk? Ghost 2003 not installed on the HD?
