Vista OS can't be installed with the ghost image from ghost HDD.

Could help us to resolve following question.

1.Load BIOS Default settings,save and exit
2.Install Vista OS RC2.
3.Make Vista OS to image file to ghost HDD,then ghost OS with the image file
4.Restart EUT after ghost,but system can prompt message,and can't enter
system.
Ghost version is 8.0. Then we try to use latest version 10.0. But still
failed.
Thank you very much!!!

Hi,

Symantec hasn't released any Vista-compatible versions of their product sets
yet. See:

Symantec's needs to try their version of Ghost 2003 because it has no
problems imaging and restoring my version of Vista 64bit RC1.

Re: Vista OS can't be installed with the ghost image from ghost HDD.

Same here...Ghost 2003 bootable CD works great for creating/restoring Vista
partitions. Just don't try to install use Ghost from within Windows or mark
drives. Ghost 2003 was the last version based upon the original Norton
Ghost software. After that, Symantec changed to DriveImage-based software,
which they took and completely trashed to where it's unreliable in a lot of
systems, and marketing it to newbies that will blindly try to use it, then
trash their systems.

"Works" does not equal "Supported". Yes, it works; no I won't rely on it
for anything but personal use.

To my knowledge it was not released as originally predicted. Not uncommon.
