Tried creating a new Ghost DOS disk with the -noide parameter and it worked.

Was able to restore a previous Ghost image, but just before completion I got a "boot sector write virus" error message.

Ran AVG Free virus scan after this and it showed no errors.

Is this boot sector write virus a residue of the Windows Ghost attemt and hang in creating a virtual dos partition?

And would overwriting the C: partition with a fresh install of Windows get rid of it? Or do I also need to delete my V: data and media partition?
