The ghost cannot be used and the solution to a: \ ghosterr. txt cannot be avoided.

I searched the internet for the problem that Lenovo computers cannot do ghost. I found that many of my friends have encountered the same situation as me. In fact, not all Lenovo computers cannot use ghost, but some of them cannot be done. Many friends say that deleting hidden partitions, formatting, re-partitioning, and clearing CMOS of Lenovo... with these methods, you can certainly do ghost. In fact, none of these methods can work.

Analysis: the main reason is the use of SATA optical drive and hard drive. Ghost cannot tell the hard drive and optical drive, as well as the motherboard using the latest 9xx chip.

Influencing factors:

1. You must have the SATA support function and boot from the SATA optical drive before using the application software (partition software, etc.) on the disc. Alternatively, you can use the fully-installed XP system disk partition.

2. Partition tools such as PQ and sfdisk may affect the normal operation of ghost. We recommend that you use DM partitioning. The partition software recommended by IBM is fdisk provided by windowsme as the best partitioning tool.

3. Lenovo and Dell used a special method to hide a partition (about 2 GB for one-click backup and recovery). None of the software such as the disk manager could display this hidden partition, the total disk capacity is about 2 GB out of thin air.

Preparations:

1. Prepare windows PE to download the dial

2. Prepare ghost11, ghost32 (ghost version used in the graphic interface), and ghost explorer.

3. Delete hidden HPA partitions

Solution:

1. Press del into (awardbios CMOS) -- integrate peripherals -- via onchip ide device -- ide HDD block mode will (enabled changed to disabled) -- F10--Y -- enter and then perform ghost OK. This method is applicable to most Lenovo computers (unless the motherboard is different from the original one, but it is basically the same)

2. Use PE to run ghost32 for cloning and recovery

3. Start the optical drive first, divide the zone, and upload a system to drive C (sys command), copy the ghost and file to another partition, and shield the optical drive from the BIOS, then you can start the hard disk to ghost.

4. Add the-noide parameter to ghost.

5. Remove Lenovo's hard disk and mount it to another machine that can use ghost, so that Lenovo's hard disk can be used as a slave disk and then as a ghost, of course, when you want to recover, you also need to connect to another computer for recovery...

6. Use ghost explorer, that is, the ghost browser, to compile the gho file. Format the drive C in PE. If you want FAT32, FAT32, and NTFS. Open the extracted gho file in ghost explorer, extract all content in the file to drive C, and restart. This method does not actually use ghost any more. Avoid A: \ ghosterr. txt and failure to use ghost. There is no time for testing, but it should be feasible.
