Ghost and backup

oh i see, sounds like ghost is quite useful, especially considering i reformat quite often

so whats the best plan of attack? employ both ghosting and backing up? just use ghost and create an image of everything once a week so you have all files backed up as an image?

i wont be using the corporate version, but i am wondering about the version numbers of ghost. i think theres 2003, 9 and 10. 10 obviously being the latest but i read that 2003 is the best? not sure how that works
 
are there any major differences between 2003 and v10? i heard you can use 2003 even if windows doesnt boot therefore you can recover if windows becomes corrupted?
 
if this is the first post you've read from me, then make it the most important one..

use acronis true image, not ghost



soo much better
 
hmm looks like V10 it is then

been wondering about this for a while. say i create an image of that core system , then i use the computer for a few months, install stuff on it and i want to reformat.

but before doing that reformat i want to create different sized partitions to the ones that were imaged....how would that work? if at all?
 
acronis doesn't care what size partitions were and are, as long as the data will fit onto it, its fine..

ghost 9 is funny about transferring a image from a large drive to a smaller one.

read my last post!

acronis has a 30day trial, give it a go and use the 'create bootable cd' option, it'll create live acronis cd, that you can use to backup and restore any pc with
