Since this issue was evidently caused by Ghost for some reason restoring to the other HD, and I since I'm going to have start all over again for a 4th or 5th time due to the repeated Fault Bucket errors when closing apps, I'm not going to dwell on it any more. The only reason why I wanted to check out the new 2nd HD was due to the fault errors, and since they are still happening on it, I guess the system restore error is irrelevant now. Now, if it comes back, then I'll have to get back on it. Thanks for your time Bob, -Clint
God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gemini Computer & TV" <geminitv@ Then I strongly recommend using the Ghost Boot Disk method and upon completion of the copy process back at the A: prompt, disconnecting one of the drives and rebooting. Try it that way and see if it cures the problem. Let us know how you make out.
