Thanks. I obtained FindPart and ran it. The Windows version seemed to hang
on me, wouldnt continue, but the Dos version ran OK under the same Dos boot
that runs Ghost.

Ghost 2003 sees my disk (as source partitions) as:

1 type 7 NTFS 24999MB which is my C:
2 type 7 NTFS 24999MB D:
3 type b FAT32 20002MB E:
4 type 7 NTFS 20002MB F:
5 type 7 NTFS 62620MB G:
- free 2MB

But it will not show the FAT32 partition as a possible destination for an
image file. I have no clue why it might be unacceptable. It sure seems to
work fine in XP and Dos.

I will attach the FindPart output below, but I dont know what it means.

I also ran Norton Disk Doctor from Sy. It reported "no bootable partition
found", but I told it to leave it alone - that cant apply to the Fat
partition. Its tests ran through all five partitions and reported nothing
else wrong.
