How Do I Image My HD?

I am running win XP Pro and want to use some type of imaging program to image my harddrive so I can revert it back later to a basic setup instead of reformating and reinstalling all my software. I have Norton System Works 2002 with Norton Ghost but I have no idea how to make an image with it. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Start with the Boot wizard, create a ghost boot disk. Once you boot to the floppy select: Local, partition, to image. You will choose at that point to create your Image to your CDRW or another empty partition on your hard drive. And make sure you defrag your current setup before you do anything. It can sreate problems if you dont.

If you ever want to restore the image you will basically do the same thing, only you will select: Local, partition, From Image.

Pretty simple once you get the hang of it.
 
Hey Smithy,

Check your Norton Ghost book on how to Image a drive. 2002 supports burning an image directly to a CDRW(if supported). That would be the easieast way to do it. I believe that you cannot make an image and save it to the same partition at the same time, hence do you have 2 or more partitions on your hard drive?

Also goto
Norton Ghost and look at the tutorial.

I hope I helped in my own lil way, if not several others here are very familure to Ghost and should be able to help more.
