Hi, I read multiply threads and guides but have never done this before and therefore I need your help please.
Its also crucial that no mistakes are done. Therefore I need some perfect solutions, not more links or guides that you havent tried by yourself!
Good references required...
object/task:
I want to restore my hdd with a .gho image !
1. I have a failing windows XP on a computer with hdd1.
2. There is one image done by norton ghost (older ver) so called .gho
I have received this one img and not done it myself, its not from the actual computer but identical hardware and windows. Its how this
computer was cloned to existence in the first place!
(my fair guess is that this imaging was done by some serious OEM/licensed/deployment manager with
professional Norton software.)
3. The target computer, dont have cdrom.
So what shall I do?
4. So far,I came up with this:
*A I have to place the image.gho to external hdd
*B I somehow have to make the target computer boot into DOS/WindowsPE/other live disc from usb?
*C Somewhere at this point, the target computer needs to run some ghosting process?
*D The target drive (called hdd1 before) will be overwritten and automaticlly partioned ?
*E The target drive and computer, should now be reset (BIOS) and normal boot from local hdd without problem?
Thanks, and sorry for my poor english.
