Ghost 2003 is much more compact and uses less resources than newer versions, and it works very well. I finally engineered a way to get a good boot disc with Ghost 2003 on it to recognize all drives. I compiled a Nero CD image file and included contents of Windows 98 Startup disk and selected drive A for boot source when that option is given in Nero. It boots well, and Ghost 2003 recognizes all drives just fine. This eliminates the need to launch Ghost from Windows, have to reboot and create disaster recovery disk. BTW I also included contents of Windows 98 upgrade CD plus contents of folder containing Windows 3.1 which I previously copied from floppies. Now I'm able to setup Windows 98 upgrade version when needed without having to change disc or insert floppies in addition to running Ghost on same bootable disc.
