Restore Ghost Image Into Virtual PC?

[Duncan Rounding]

Has anyone been successful in creating a Ghost Image of their machine and then restoring it in a Virtual PC?

And further to this then could I restore a Ghost Image of PC A into VPS running on PC B?

I've believe it can be done with VMWare but am unsure about Virtual PC.

Best of British to you!

Have just Ghosted a machine in the office onto a new PC (single environment) and it has been a right kerfuffle.... had to re-install XP Pro back over the top of the newly ghosted machine to get it to function and still tracking down drivers that have not installed correctly.

Ghost schmost, Acronis 10 is the dogs cojones IMO.

Agreed unless you use the old floppy verison of Ghost 8. I usze Acronis for online backups now with confidence but still use the 'old' Ghost to do shutdown images. Hence I'm looking at how to restore a Ghost into a VPC.
