[dba-Tech] Ghost of a Problem

I'm using Ghost 12.  I'll try booting from the Ghost disk and see what it
can see.   The computer can see the EHD so I assume Ghost can as well. Just
doesn't see the backup files.

Hi Rocky,

I do use Ghost 9.  Two thoughts:

Does your PC see the external hard drive?  (Not just Ghost).

You might try using the Ghost disk as a boot disk to see if then you can see
the external hard drive.  (I did this once to help to help recover from a
virus.  I restored the entire Windows folder and nothing else - it worked!)

Good Luck!
Dan

Dear Lists(s):
 
Well poor old HAL9004 is back together again after it viral adventure and
relatively happy. But a few files got hosed in the process which I'd like to
recover.
 
I use Ghost, so they're all in the Ghost files on the external HD.

But since I had to reload the OS, none of my installed programs were
available.  Like all the Office files were still on the HD but I couldn't
access them - had to reload.  So I reloaded stuff like Office.  And WinFax.
And Ghost.

The problem now is that Ghost doesn't 'see' the backup on the external hard
drive.  

Are there any Ghosters out there who know how to solve this one?

MTIA
