I'm using Virtual PC which does not utilize a ghost image, thus the question. We've got too many small businesses that are wedded to their old programs so a 'virtual machine' that runs the program would be just fine with them! Suggest possible 'software' conversion program from Ghost to ISO that can be then booted in any Virtual PC utilzing the older OS, still might need some newer drivers, but that would solve a major problem.
If I have an older machine that's running (bully :) ) but anymore I can't simply replace it with a newer model, the older stuff just can't find drivers and the newer OS-eg Vista, just doesn't run the software. I've used Ghost for years to create 'backups' but as older equipment is becoming so outdated/obsolete and newer OS's becoming too sophisticated to operate the older software, we're slowly dying in the 'trenches'. I've seen some documents/processes on BartPE/VMWare but nothing on MS Virtual PC.įor Symantec, this would be an 'extraordinary' tool/separate product.
General ? for anyone, has anybody had luck converting a 'good' Ghost Image to an 'ISO' image for possible use in a Virtual Machine.
