Why Can't I Ghost my Win2K NTFS partition (Notron Ghost 2001)?

[DocDoo]

I just clean installed Windows 2000 in a NTFS partition, and Ghost 2001 wont let me make an image of my fresh Win2K partition to my 2nd partition.

C: = Win2K (NTFS)
d: = Data (Fat32)

What happens is when I boot into Ghost, it lets me choose my Win2K partition as the source... but I can't save it to mt D: partition because there is NO D: drive in the drop down menu. Just A, C, and my CD-RW.

BTW: I rather not save it to a CD-RW.

Does the "destination" drive need to be the same file format (ie. NTFS)?

Uhhh, h e l p ?

Destination can only be fat/fat32. So C: in ghost would be your D: in win2k. At least that is the way it is in Ghost 2000
Give it a try, as long as you are only dumping a partition you can't really do any harm

Wizkid gets the cookie

Thanks that was it..... My C: was actually my D:

I did an image dump and all is well

Ghost 6.5 claims to fully support NTFS just as it supports FAT volumes.
