If you have a 3.5 floppy drive (IMO every PC should) Ghost 2003 will let you create a boot CD that contains ghost.exe from which you can restore a ghost image from any location, including one of your hard drives.

What you suggest is my thought, too.  However, I am in contact with the 
person who built the computer and he doesn't, for some reason, want me 
to do that.  I don't understand why.  He wants me to pull out the hard 
drive and send it to him so he can extract the images stored on it, use 
those to  restore the drive to it's original state, then send the drive 
back to me so I can reinstall it in the computer.  That will take a week 
and I'm not sure that I want to do that.

Sounds screwy to me - does he just want the fee for "fixing" it?
What is it's "original state?"

..
. I suspect the problem has something to do with the Win98 partition on the new 
computer.  BTW, this computer has WinXP Home on it.

why do you have a Win98 partition?
