i installed the ghost on my w 2k pc and using the "clone" option to clone my HD.
when i am using the clone HD, on boot up i am getting a message
that the paging file is to small + instruction how to change it.
(it doesnt let me boot all the way up nithere in safe mode)
what is wrong?
( the ghost is set to work with the "pc dos" & not with ms dos - if it is any thing to with it)
thank you in advance

what do the instructions say?

perhaps you should change the size of that virtual memory paging file. by default it's at 2megs, what is yours set to?

May want to try grooming your initial source drive (checkdisk, defrag, recreate your pagefile as listed in the above link)...then attempting a clone again.

Booting from PC-Dos is fine, that's what the Ghost boot disk will use, I use it all the time.

Default size of the pagefile.sys I believe is varied...as the setting is "Let Windows Manage".

This happens quite often... take a windows 98 boot disk or get one at http://www.bootdisk.com Boot off the floppy, once your at a DOS prompt type fdisk /MBR reboot, pop the floppy out and you'll be all set.

The boot record got corrupt.
