Average Rating: 
Rating: - Good product,. Too bad it's Symantec
Ghost 9.0 et al was originally Drive Image by Powerquest. Drive Image was a
great product with good support. Symantec bought Powerquest and renamed Drive
Image "Norton Ghost". I only bought Ghost because I know Drive Image is a
good product. Symantec added a few inconsequential features but now provides
zero technical support. Good luck if you have a question not on their FAQ site.
Every year Symantec does another insignificant change, calls it a higher

Rating: - Ghost 9.0 is really a Ghost
I have never had a product perform as badly as this one has - it simply is a very slow process, it doesn't deliver an image that is complete or actually makes a boot image as promised. I want to return it.

Also useful is the ability to mount the drive images.
Rating: - Great program - IF you're into the Blue Screen of Death!
Installed this on my laptop and it worked great until I had to use the Recovery Disc to restore a backup from DVD.

Fortunately I had a spare PC to re-record the DVD using single session - albeit manually. Other problem I had with this is that on my main computer in Windows XP SP2, it would always give a BSOD crash every time I tried to use it. The low-level driver wasn't cooperating ... Read More
Rating: - I might as well flushed my $$$
Ghost 9 was supposed to be an improvement? When you try to clone your boot drive it will copy everything but it will re-assign your system folder to the drive letter that windows has assigned to it. Making the new drive useless, of course. Their website is NO help and their support people can't even read the manual they were given.
Buy Acronis True Image 9.0.
