#Norton ghost 15 hard drive clone windows
I am afraid that,if i clone the main disk,without first fully removing Linux and rewriting the windows bootloader,i will have serious problems with the cloned drive,it will not boot,because it will search for the entries of grub bootloader.

This is troubling me a lot,because i want to copy the main disk to the second system,without messing at all with Linux entries and without having boot issues later,when i will restart the cloned second system. Or will i have to fully remove Linux first,before cloning? I know the proceedure to uninstall Linux and rewrite the windows bootloader before i do the cloning,but is there any way to clone the main disk without messing with the Linux entries and the GRUB2 bootloader? The main problem is,that the main system (the "source" that i want to clone to the other computer) is running also Linux (OpenSuse 12.1) and so,it is a dual-boot system.That means,it has the Linux bootlaoder -GRUB2- installed and i am afraid that the cloning proceedure will fail if i clone my C: drive contents to the second computer,because it will also copy the Linux bootloader there and the second system has only Windows7 and not Linux installed,therefore it won't boot. The other computer is basically the same,same motherboard,same memory,same windows version (Windows7 ultimate 64 bit)The only differences are: the main system has 3 nvidia gtx480 graphics cards in sli mode and the 2 (600gbx2) velociraptors while the second computer has 3 nvidia gtx580 graphics cards in sli mode and the 2 (300gbx2) velociraptors.Both are running Windows7 Ultimate 64bit and both also have the same amount and type of ddr3 memory,12gb in each system. Hi,i would like some help,i would like to clone my hard disk drive (2 wd velociraptors 600gb each,in raid 1 mode) to my second computer,with Norton Ghost 15.The 2 computers are almost identical,their only difference is that the main computer that i want to clone to the second system,has 2 wd velociraptors (600gb each) in RAID 1 mode and the second computer (the "target" that i want the "source" disk to be cloned) has again 2 velociraptors (but the previous ones,with the 300gb capacity each) again in RAID 1 mode.The motherboard in both systems is the same,the Asus Rampage 3 extreme.
