Rating: - Blue screen of death bad_pool_header - no help from norton
The title says it all. Every time I try to do a backup to an external usb drive with 450G or space I get a blue screen and the bad_pool_header error. NO help with out cash at Symantec. I have XP Pro with 2M of ram.

I bought Norton Ghost 12.0 to back-up my Vista OS PC about 6 months ago. Once I figured out the cumbersome interface and strange ways to configure the back-ups -and I consider I have above average knowledge of software and PCs-, an update Norton delivered about December time made Ghost to stop working, having me to uninstall it using a Norton removal tool, which by the way also removed the Norton AV program, forcing me to reinstall everything again.
Rating: - Good when it works, terrible when it doesn't
This product installed and worked properly on my new Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit PC. It was the first item installed after the Windows load.
This product would not install on my fully loaded Windows XP Pro PC. I jumped through all the hoops and it still would not work.

Fortunately Dell replaced it free of charge and paid for the shipping. Unfortunately they can not replace all of my programs and data. I had been backing up via Ghost 12 to an external hard drive and that saved me countless hours of reinstalling drivers, software, operating systems etc. Ghost 12 worked like a champ. ... Read More
Rating: - Ghost 12 doesn't work on Vista32
I've spent the last 5 days trying to get Ghost 12 to work on Vista32, and it just isn't going to happen. The first time I loaded it, Dec 2007, I got a good disk image ... that is the only time it has worked.
But in Jan 2008 they introduced an update that crashes it on Vista32. I've stripped at rebuilt my system 4 times, and each time I load Ghost 12, LiveUpdate downloads an update for Ghost. The update install crashes, gives a LiveUpdate error (LU1812), and Ghost will not backup the system. ... Read More
