I had no luck with Ghost 2003 and XP because I had a FAT32 partition that was not the C: partition and DOS relettered the drives in a way that was fatal for Norton Ghost 2003. If you have a copy of ghreboot.exe you may be able to get back into Windows by running it, but it's a crap shoot.
Locked up loading and wouldn't go further. I had a similar problem with Ghost 2003 on an XP Pro system. RE: Ghost 2003 PC DOS Permanently Hangs torandson (TechnicalUser) 24 Feb 05 09:47
I'm at the point of removing the drive and formatting externally, and starting from scratch. Is there a way to interrupt/cancel this PC DOS and just boot to Windows? Attempting to boot into Windows safe mode didn't work. The hard drive is SATA and I was sure to run Norton Live Update for Ghost. My BIOS is set to load from the floppy drive first, then the DVD ROM drive. Both computers are recently home built, both using Asus P4P800 motherboards. The boot disk works perfectly in another XP Pro PC (with a SATA drive too). I had been successful using the boot disk when the OS was XP Home. The PC permanently remains is this state and it can't boot to Windows even after removing the ghost boot disk! I even tried to reinstall the OS, but the boot up process is looking for PC DOS, so I cannot even reload the OS. After upgrading my PC to XP Pro from XP Home, I was attempting to restore an image from a DVD using the Ghost interface in Windows, but the PC stops responding after trying to load PC DOS.
