Hello,
I have installed Vista on my XP preinstalled laptop. I made the Vista installation from XP and from Vista setup files located on a server (because the laptop could not see the Vista CD).
1. XP partition (NTFS, 10GB, main, active)
2. Data partition (NTFS, 50GB, logical)
3. Vista partition (NTFS, 17GB, main)
The Vista installation created un number of files and a boot folder on the XP partition.
A collegue who did the same on his laptop had a lot of problems (and ended reinstalling Vista) after restoring his XP partition with Ghost (I have Ghost old and new images from my partition as well).
My question is: Is there any way to restore properly and quickly the dualboot after restoring a partition with Ghost ?
Or is it possible to convert the standard Windows dual boot into an easier to ghost restore dual boot ?
Thank you for your help.
