Question : Flashing cursor after restoring a ghost image to a new hard drive

i have a 320gb seagate 2.5" drive to replace my seagate 160gb

using ghost, i created an image of the 160gb disk, then installed the 320gb drive.

the image restored to the 320gb drive fine and without errors, but when i try to boot from the 320, all i get is a flashing cursor in the upper left hand side of the screen.

any ideas ?

Answer : Flashing cursor after restoring a ghost image to a new hard drive

the probelm is that VISTA does not use a standard MBR ( certainly not from win 98 )

You need to get into the Vista repair console via your install DVD, and do
fixboot
fixmbr


I hope this helps !
