Recovered Drives do not boot

I booted my computer from the Norton Ghost 15.0 CD.  I do not get anything that resembles a window with tabs. Just a window with a couple of buttons that say "Backup my Computer" and "Recover My Computer".  I am able to create the recovery of my hard drives to an external USB drive.  Then I can restore the backup set to virgin drives.  However, the computer will not boot from these drives and I noticed that the "Recover Master Boot Record" option is not checked on the recovery status.  I haven't found a method on the backup to select recovering the master boot record.  So, my question is "What am I missing?"
