    Norton Ghost error message

    I got this error on a work machine yesterday. Today I got the same message on my home machine. I've never seen it before.

    "Bad blocks encountered on read - continue anyway?"

    Kinda strange that it appeared on two separate machines at basically the same time.

    Ran chkdsk on the w2k machine at work, also a NAV virus scan and Norton Disk Doctor. They all came up clean.

    Anyone ever seen this message? TIA

    Edit: This happens when imaging a partition. The only reference I could find at symantec was for when restoring an image.

    ecross, thanks for the link. On my home machine, I noticed that ghost was giving me that message when trying to image my default OE inbox.dbx file.

    Since I don't use that one, (my mail store folder is on my D: partition) I simply cleared it out.

    The entries in there must have been corrupted or something. Now ghost completes the image with no error message.
