Right now I have a C & D drive. The image is on the D. When I take out the "old" C and put in the "new", replacement C, then I reboot with the Ghost disk in the A drive.
Ghost comes up, and it does ask for the source drive, but the "new drive" C is not listed, and the old drive D (where the image is) is listed as the "C" drive. I choose that one and get to the image OK. Then it asks me for the destination, and that is where the new drive "C" is listed, but can not be selected. It is "grayed out" and can' t be highlighted.

What is interesting is the unaccessble drive shows the size of the "old C" drive 3.2 GB, not the size of the new drive C (5.2 GB). Maybe something wrong with the new drive? My system maybe can not handle it above 3.2GB?

Can I test the new drive somehow to see if it is OK?

Thanks for the help again.
