Okay, I found another post here with the same Ghost ver., same situation and he posted a solution which I partially followed:
Boot the PC with a DOS diskette containing FDISK command, delete the C: partition, then reboot from HD.
I thought I understand the workings of Ghost better and forgot that it messes with the main HD's partition space, and whenever it comes to deleting a C: partition it scares the pigeon poop out of me! I simply changed the active partition to #2 and rebooted. #2 partition is my HD's Windows partition. I will go back later and remove that Ghost partition.
Now my question is: why did my Drive Clone fail? This IS the main function of Ghost. I realize my copy of Ghost a a little old, but this shouldn't matter for what I am applying it to here.
Any useful information you can provide will be much appreciated, it might even inspire me to upgrade.

With a Dell XP laptop, I am currently having the same problem using Ghost 2003. When I run gdisk.exe I get the message, "No fixed disks installed." I am assuming I can run FDISK, delete the C: partition and change the active partition. Question: I do not have a floppy drive. Can I create a CD with FDISK and boot from that CD?
And likewise, any idea what caused this problem? Should I uninstall and reinstall System Works 2003? Is it safe to use Ghost 2003 with XP on newer hardware?
Thank you for the help.

Yes, Fdisk will run from a cd.
I use G2003 in the dos mode (boot from the created cd) with SW2006 and it works well.
The earlier version of NSW may not support NTFS, I don't know, but ghost knows how to handle it ok.
I don't do any ghosting in windows.
