Feb 18, 2018 - More Norton Ghost 11.5 Dos Boot Cd - Iso videos. I have inherited a mess of at our IT office. The previous guy used GhostCast Server to deploy.

I can still remember that crazy kid (drug addict) that did the Dell commercials. 'Congratulations, you're getting a Dell'! Sorry, that was a while back, but some memories die hard. I build my own 'Personal' computers, because with an aftermarket motherboard, like my Gigabyte, you have many more options and abilities, many more than I will ever use in my lifetime. On my mobo, I set it to UEFI/Legacy, and it always sees my WiFi Mouse and USB Keyboard. The OS makes no difference.

I have successfully backed up every OS from XP to Win-10 Pro/64, and Ghost 11.5, run from my DOS boot disk, doesn't seem to even notice or care. The way Ghost is written, it backs up ones and zeros as it sees them and doesn't seem to make any ID of the OS, or type of data. My webmaster used to back up his Linux Server with Ghost 11.5. As for the Restore, on Windows 10. I can't guarantee that. I have not actually tried it yet.

But I can, if you'd like. OK Bruce, this one's for you. First let me say that I don't normally run Windows 10. I much prefer Win-7 Ultimate/32. Having said that, I do have Windows 10 Pro/64 on an old 80GB Seagate drive. So I unplugged my W7 HD and plugged in the Win-10 drive, booted it up and made sure it was working properly. Then I rebooted the system with my DOS boot disk containing Ghost 11.5 and I proceeded to do a Ghost backup to a second partition on the W-10 HD.

The backup went off without a hitch, and my WiFi Mouse and USB Keyboard worked just find through the process. Following the creation of the Backup Image File with FAST Compression, I immediately did a Restore of 'Image to Partition'.

So my C: partition was completely overwritten. That too ended without any errors. Then I shut down the system, removed my Ghost CD, and rebooted to the HD. Windows 10 came up absolutely normal. So I have to conclude that both the Backup and the Restore worked 100%. I hope that answers at least some of your questions. EPM tells me that the C: partition is formatted NTFS/ Basic MBR.

That's the way Windows 10 installed itself on this HD. I had nothing to do with that. Thank you for the information. I am sticking with Ghost on my old Dell 8200 as it does just fine on that. I did burn the Ghost 11.5 ISO and while it will boot, it does not see the USB Keyboard or USB Mouse.

So how do I fix that minor glitch? Rock manager no cd crack. As to my laptop, I decided to buy Acronis True Image 2017 and it creates a Bootable USB Drive or Bootable CD which does see the USB Keyboard and Mouse.

Have not yet made the Image as it will need to go to an External Hard Drive and that will take some time with a USB 2 drive. I don't know if I've ever gone into detail about my Ghost 11.5 boot disk (CD, Flash Drive or SD card). My DOS boot disk comes up in an Ansi Color dos menu, with many options, on just how I will run Ghost. I also have utilities like the Universal Low Level Formatter, and NTFS4DOS.

I even have a Windows Password removal tool on the disk. I even have cleanup utilities to clean up an old FAT32 formatted HD, like with XP on it. I always ran XP on a FAT32 hard drive, contrary to the self proclaimed Experts who said that wouldn't work. Hey dudes, it works just fine and gives me far greater control of my data.

Like the same guys who said I couldn't use Ghost to Defrag my hard drive. Lol lol lol But think about it.if you do a Ghost backup and follow that with a Ghost restore.Ghost overwrites the C: partition, laying down the files in perfect order, with NO spaces between them, effectively Defragmenting the HD. I've done it hundreds of times and it works GREAT.

Most importantly, I run 'Mouse.com' from the Autoexec.bat file on the Ghost Boot disk. So even though I'm running a DOS program, I still have my mouse. I can run Ghost from the keyboard, but it's much easier and faster to run it with my mouse. If your keyboard is plugged directly into your motherboard, it should work OK with Ghost.

I can't imagine that it wouldn't. Ghost 11.5 was an upgrade to Ghost 2003, to make it compatible with NTFS formatting. But truly it was never upgraded to deal with UEFI, which I just don't use.

So if anyone says that Ghost 11.5 won't work with an OS on a UEFI formatted HD. That may well be true. OH well, that doesn't affect me!

Y'all have a great day now, Y'hear? Ghost 11.5 was an upgrade to Ghost 2003, to make it compatible with NTFS formatting.

I have to disagree with that. Ghost 2003 and even 2002 had no trouble with NTFS file systems.

My understanding is v11.5 was principally an upgrade to support Vista/Win7. Ghost 2002/2003 could understand XP's boot.ini file (and manipulate it when necessary), but not Vista/Win7's BCD. Ghost 11.5 fixed that shortcoming. I think v11.5 may have also fixed v2003's disk size limit, which IIRC was something like 1.1 TB or thereabouts, but since I long ago switched to Terabyte Image I haven't tested Ghost 11.5's limits. If anyone says that Ghost 11.5 won't work with an OS on a UEFI formatted HD. That may well be true.
