Hi.
I have a computer running windows NT, and I made a image of the hard disk using Norton Ghost 2003. The original is a 15GB hard drive. Then I copied the image to a new 40GB hard drive.
I insalled the hard drive, and ran the BIOS configuration to make sure thet the system has detected the new hd. But, when the system starts looking fot the boot, it says that has found the boot sector on IDE-0 (the hd), but freezes just there. Nothing happens. I already tried with another hard drive, but nothing. If I install back the original hard drive the computer starts ok.
Thanks for your Help.

When restoring the image, in the options, tell Ghost to use the same size partition as the one in the image and NOT expand it to fill the disk. NT boot partitions should not exceed 7GB!
