 I would physically take out the hard drive from the target computer and
install it in the serving computer and try, but first...  do a complete
scandisk on both hard drives.  Another good program is Spinrite from Steve
Gibson at:  http://grc.com/spinrite.htm   I use Ghost alot, especially on
hard drives that are about to die, and lots of times it canīt be done
because of the permanent damage already done to the source drives, it locks
up.  There are command line switches to overcome this, but I do not want to
copy errors.  I then have to do a XCOPY and pray!  Have you tried to copy
the image to a CD?
