Ghost help

[racefan]

I have a 2 week old install of XP pro and I was installing Ulead movie factory and the system rebooted for some reason during install so now I cannot uninstall the program as I get a DLL error with a SP 2 error code to reinstall the program but I cannot install the program again as it says the previous install has to be removed. I had a restore point but the system will no go back to it like every time I try to use a restore point but I did a ghost image.

Here is the question I need help with
If I use the ghost 9.0 backup I will loose all my saved documents that were not there when I did the ghost backup right? So I need to backup my files again before I use the ghost image right.

Yes, assuming the documents are on the same drive (C that you are going to restore. If you have more than one partition or physical drive you could copy the files to D:, etc. before the restore.

But you should be keeping backups of anything you care about already, since a hard drive can literally fail at any time with no prior warning.

I have most backed up just want to make sure I was thinking aong the right lines. I have a partition so I will just move all the information there till restored.

Thank you for the reply
