I was trying to increase the size of partition Windows was on so I deleted 3 partitions and created them again. So I restored the Norton Ghost image (With Windows 7) back onto the formatted partition. Then I received the below error message. The error happend just at the very end of restoring the image.
I reverted back to the size the previous Windows partition had. Could tell this was the correct size because Norton Ghost automatically detected the correct target drive before the restore started on the recovery disk. Although still received the same error message. I'm using Windows 7 pro with Norton Ghost v15.
Error EBAB0013: A test that safeguards the integrity of the program failed unexpectedly. CHECK failed, VistaBootMgrAddLoaderObject: .\Bcd\BcdFunc.cpp (229): pId
Rather than try to restore into a larger partition, you should restore the image into the unallocated space and under the "edit" button, use the option to expand the image.
But you don't need to use Ghost to make the C drive bigger because you must have manipulated the partitions so there was adjacent space next to the C partition to make it bigger.
You had to have got to this point before using Ghost
<---existing C drive----><--unallocated space---><----other partitions---->
When you have the unallocated space following the C drive, go into disk management, right click on the C partition and selct "expand".
Thanks for the reply. Was trying to expand the C drive using disk management before deleting the partitions. 1 of the partitions I shrunk to make more space for the C drive although when trying to expand the C drive the expand volume menu option was disabled. Even when deleting a partition to make unallocated space the expand volume was still unselectable. Anyway I've just installed Windows again.
