Hey Billy,
I've come to the conclusion that this can not be done. Since I own a copy of Ghost 9 I'm going to try it ONE MORE TIME.

What I plan on doing is making a clone of Drive #1 (my C:\ drive) to Drive #2 making Drive #2 bootable. This will make Drive #2 my C:\ drive. After the clone, I will make sure that Drive #1 is disconected from the computer. This should make the computer boot off of Drive #2 which is now my C:\ and leave a bootable copy of the drive (Drive #1) in my machine for backup. I will have to open my machine to switch the drives but it will be a solid backup solution.

Does this sound like the thing to do or do you have another suggestion?

Thanks

Jim
