![]() ![]() Running out of options, I removed the new C:(80GB) and replaced the old C:(40GB). I tried loading Norton onto the old D: drive and running ghost from there – that did not work. I tried the Norton boot disk again, but all the same failures. Now I was showing the new drive as C:, and the old D: drive as D: - just what I wanted. I couldn’t figure out how to sort this out, so I disconnected the old D: now showing as C:, and reformatted the new drive (again), and installed XP again. Unfornately, the install made the new drive D:, and my old D: was turned into C. I thought maybe because the new drive was unformatted, so I installed a copy of Win XP on the new drive. To my horror, all I got was “bad blocks on read Ox1, drive:1, 1 sectors starting from absolute sector 2. When I did(the new drive was raw- unformatted), I tried to boot from the Norton Dos Boot disks I had made. My intent was to remove C: (40GB), and replace it with a new C: (80GB). I ran it all over again, got the same response “bad blocks….ignore subsequent” but this time when I answered yes, it started the image copy.Īt this point the D: drive had a copy of the image. It then flashed a screen saying “Read sector failure, result=1, drive=1, sectors 39078759 to 39078823. I used Ghost to make an image of my C: drive and place it on my D: drive, however, the first time I ran “backup” it said “bad blocks encountered – would you like to continue anyway?” I said yes, the next screen said “Ignore subsequent bad blocks”. I installed a brand new copy of Norton Systemworks 2003 Professional. This describes the worst computer experience of my life because of Norton Ghost. ![]() I did print out your 21 page Ghost information file - didn't seem to cover my problem.
