    Thanks for the links Archer. I saw the first one but not the second. From the research I've done today it would appear that the image is fine, but the drive it was taken from had some corruption. However, the image was taken from a new install of W2K Pro on a brand new Dell PC. The only thing that may have upset ghost was that the drive was partitioned into 2 after the W2K install using Partition Magic 8! That's all that I did differently to the norm.

    If I do an integrity check with ghost it says the image is OK. If I try to open the image in Ghost Explorer it tells me the following..

    "corruption in image file, or media not present. Not all files are shown."

    Still working on it.

    Rather an odd one Gazzak..............you might try Unidisker and see if that reports a corrupt image [shrug]other than that an email to Symantec may get you an answer.
