    cloning dual boot drive
    « on: January 15, 2011, 03:20:49 PM »
    I have a dual boot drive with windows 98 on the first partition and windows XP on the second.  After cloning the drive using norton ghost 2003, I can access windows 98 but I cannot access windows XP.  XP will start to load then stop when the blue screen with the windows logo appears. Need help.  Thanks.

      I cloned the drive to another hard drive that will be used in the same computer.  I want a backup available if the original drive fails.  I have used norton ghost several times before on drives that were not dual boot and did not have any problems.
