Its a advanced utility used to clone hard disk drives, creating backup images of a hard disk drive. Using this utility network administrators can easily distribute software across a broad range of computers with all the same configurations.

Norton Ghost allows for a hard disk drive image to be created to a second hard disk drive, CD-R, CD-RW or direct to another PC using USB or TCP/IP.

it also supports FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS.

edit: u shud have looked on the symantec site http://www.symantec.com/sabu/ghost/ghost_p...l/features.html

It is an excellent program, I recommend it highly.

After a format/install, add all your normal programs, adjust your settings/preferences, get all the Windows updates, then clone your new shiny setup onto another partition.
If you ever have a problem with your main (C:) drive you now have perfectly good (complete) backup ready to go. Takes only minutes to restore your OS back to new.

Why is that?
Your OS and programs probably don't take more that 5-7 GB.

Shrink the partition to within 15% of full and compress anything you can before using ghost. It doesn't make any sense to ghost the free space.
