I am going back to Norton products after a long haitus and this is not a very reassuring first experience. I get an unhandled exception.
The details:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
I searched the forums and felt it may be due to .NET. So I uninstalled .NET 1.1, 2.0 and 3.5. I then reinstalled 2.0 and 3.5 (I left out 1.1. because one poster felt that was the hangup) . I followed all the recommended updates and reboots. No dice. This is my 3rd attempt in as many days to load and install this program NAV 2009 seems to work but this version of Norton Ghost appears to be giving me an issue.
When I click continue, the program opens (like its going to run my first backup) and boom, another exception.
I contionue to try and quit out of this error and am met by exception after unhandled exception for a grand total of 10-15 exceptions.
Then a new dialog box makes its appearance.
The VProConsole Error: Error in Main, configuration failed to initialize
What is up Symantec?
This program is supposed to make back-ups easy. Yet, the board is full of failed backups and install issues.
Does anyone have an answer or suggestion.
