    How to use norton ghost(Win 7 Professional)


    Hello guys, this is my first thread, and i m very new to forums.
    So i don't know how to ask the help in forums.If i make a mistake please forgive me.

    I came to know that we can use Norton ghost to backup the windows 7, and i came to know that it is easy to backup and again restore windows 7 when os corrupts.

    So i request the forum members to help me, how to backup my OS,and how to restore again using this software.

    If possible please give with screen shots.

    OS : Win 7 Professional 32-bit
    RAM : 3GB
    HDD: 320GB

    Welcome to the Windows 7 Forums!

    Windows 7 has a good backup/imaging program built in. Nothing needed except an external, or a separate partition.

    To be better protected. it's best that system images get saved to an external or a secondary drive.


    Many of us here, thanks to WHS video tutorial, prefer imaging with Macrium Reflect Free Edition. It's an alternative to Windows 7 built-in imaging program. It's super easy to use and both the imaging and recovery process are much faster.

    While I really like Nortons Internet Security, for Imaging and File/Folder Backups I would recommend another solution.

    You will get many suggestions, but I think youll find the most popular recommended here are:

    1) Macrium Reflect (Free)
    2) Windows built in backup
    Both of which Eldinv has provided links for above :)

    3) Acronis
    My personal choice & IMHO the best, but its also a paid software.
    Some HD makers supply a free version of Acronis. Although it is stripped of all the extra features, its core backup works perfectly fine.
    I believe its WD and Seagate HDs that offer it
