Ghost will backup everything to an image and allow you to retrieve info
with their viewer. Your better bet would be to copy only the data and
not the programs, verify that you have what you need before erasing hard
drive, erase hard drive with a wiper program and re-load original
operating system.

Subject: [internetworkers] Wiping a Hard Drive; Backup Options

Hi Folks,

I have a few questions on erasing a hard drive and backing up everything
on my machines.

I want to give a PC to someone, but want to wipe everything off the hard
drive before I do it.  I think that the Norton Ghost product can do this
and also offers a backup option.

Have any of you used this product for either/both of these tasks?  For
the backup option, will it backup and relatively effortlessly restore my
Outlook folders?

Thanks much to anyone who can provide any information!

Colleen
