I'm switching from Ghost to TI because, for me, an image of my system partition is my lifeline, and I find restores more convenient with TI.

Net: Other software I use requires it anyway. I don't find that Ghost slows my system, or at least, not to any greater degree than True Image. It's explained in some detail in Symantec's knowledge base - but we've already established that the OP doesn't read before trying things. That will only work if the two computers have identical hardware in every way, whether with Ghost or with TI.

Moreover, "Dr." Z wants to clone one computer and install the image to another computer. Z, Ghost is extremely capable of imaging your entire system partition while you are still in Windows. Z could have easily "discovered that v9.0 didn't jump out to DOS" by reading any of the reviews in the major e-zines before buying Ghost.

I'm always amused by people who write that software "obviously is crap." Usually it's the person complaining who is full of it, and this is obviously the case with Dr. They should have stuck with their own team. NG9 is based on the technology Symantec got when they acquired PowerQuest DriveImage rather than their own original Ghost technology. It wouldn't even RUN on my primary system and when I did get it to work on my secondary unit, it was missing a lot of the useful features the older versions had (basically, unless you are running on XP only and don't have any other OS's, its totally useless). I took it back to OfficeMax and demanded a refund. It has got to be the biggest hunk of crap that I think I have ever used. Now, Norton Ghost 9, don't even get me started. I did have one problem one time with the V7 Acronis Boot CD not working properly with my Dell system (ACPI issue), but Acronis tech support was good enough to send me a custom build of the Boot CD with ACPI disabled that worked fine! But, so far, nothing else I've seen even comes close. I still feel the *old* 2003 version of Ghost had a few features that TrueImage is lacking (like direct burning to DVD!) and the ability to easily make a true "restore CD" with everything on it that auto-reloads, but other than that, TrueImage has been the one of the best products I've ever dealt with.

(I did make it a point to install all the drivers for the new systems controllers FIRST and also de-installed all the drivers for the old system before I did this). It worked perfectly and I am using the system right now. I just did it yesterday in fact - I imaged my old machine (2 x 250Gb PATA Raid on Silicon Image controller) to a spare hard drive (400Gb) then stuck that drive into my new machine and restored the image onto my new system using the boot CD (2 x 250Gb SATA RAID on Intel ICH6R).

So far, I have been using Acronis since version 6.0 and it has been able to do a live image of my hard drive from within Windows without shutting down and then be able to restore that image to another machine without problems. Which was "Does Acronis TI8 work better than Ghost 9.0". I think Acronis support missed the general thought behind your question. What I want to do is be able to take my burned ghost image DVDs and install everything on an empty drive on another computer, so I get a fully working cloned enviroment in 1 install, provided that the hardware is the same ofcourse. Now, since Norton Ghost v9.0 obviously is crap! I was wondering if Acronis TrueImage is better? Can it make a ghost image of the drive, including OS, registry, installed apps and all files on the drive, and burn it directly on a DVD? So right there I became very doubtful that v9.0 could even make a proper ghost image of OS, registry and installed apps since many system files are write protected while still in windows, or am I wrong? So anyway I tried and evidently the operation failed, some file couldn't get written on the DVD (probably due to the above). I discovered that v9.0 didn't jump out to DOS like v2004 did when creating a ghost image. Then I upgraded to Norton Ghost v9.0 (to see if it was better). But Norton tends to take up to much computer resources. Ok, first I used Norton Ghost 2004 to make ghost images of my drive (worked fine).
