System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files. Run the System File Checker tool (SFC.exe) Note: Refer "How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting" to reset the computer to start as normal after troubleshooting. You need to follow the steps from the article mentioned below to Putting your system in Clean Boot state helps in identifying if any third party applications or startup items are causing the issue. This kind of startup is known as a "clean boot." A clean boot helps

To help troubleshoot error messages and other issues, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs.

Perform clean boot to avoid any third party software conflict. You could achieve this by using the DOS-based Ghost 2003 CD that’s included in the box, because Ghost 10 only supports Windows 2000 and XP, but that’s a clumsy solution.Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.Īs per the description, I understand that you are facing some issues using Windows 10. This prevents the recovery of data not previously backed up from a crashed partition. It won’t let you create an image while using it either. The recovery CD is slow to boot too, taking three minutes in our tests, compared to just 30 seconds for the True Image equivalent. This isn’t mentioned in the documentation or in Symantec’s online support knowledge base, but was a common gripe in online forums.

We also ran into trouble with our first image-restore test, because our external drive was assigned letter Z, the same letter used by the recovery CD for ms-ramdrive, causing a conflict. For restoration, Acronis took 24 minutes, against Ghost’s 38 minutes. A 10GB partition of mixed data took 25 minutes to produce a 7GB image – three minutes faster than True Image but a substantial 1.5GB larger. As with True Image, there’s even the ability to mount backup images as drives for easy data exploration.Ĭompared to True Image though, overall performance begins to look a little dated, and Ghost soon falls behind.

There’s also full integration with Maxtor’s OneTouch system used on many of its external drives.

Unlike True Image, you can also back up to CD and DVD without the need for additional software, use Iomega Zip and Jaz and, at long last, both USB and FireWire drives are properly supported. Don’t be fooled into thinking that this is overkill: external drives are all too easy to steal, and there’s no such thing as ‘too secure’ when someone has unlimited time to go through your data.īackwards compatibility with version 8 and 9 format images is welcome, as is support for legacy PowerQuest Drive Image files.

Then there’s the ‘best-practice media detection’ feature that monitors storage devices attached to the PC and determines which should be backed up, as well as flagging those that offer optimal backup storage capabilities – external drives will be chosen in preference to a second internal drive.Ĭommon sense also rises to the fore when it comes to archive security, with Ghost supporting 128-, 192- and 256-bit AES encryption. Take the automatic monitoring of recovery point storage space, for example, deleting or archiving old recovery point data as per your configuration choices. Ghost focuses on automation, with its hands-off approach evident throughout the application. True Image sticks with the traditional slow, medium and fast options, which feel a little dated by contrast. There’s an elegant slider-driven way of controlling the amount of CPU time that’s used too, which can also be altered on-the-fly during a backup. We also appreciate the simplified schedule editor, which makes recovery-point scheduling a one-click process. We particularly like the ability to set event-triggered recovery points when a new application is being installed, data is added exceeding a specified size, or a new user is logging on. There’s much to be said for the task-driven approach, though. Gone is the extensive use of wizards, although the slightly strange reason given for this is that it ‘reduces complexity’. Symantec has completely changed the user interface of Ghost 10, with a new task-driven look and feel to simplify backup and restoration.
