Norton Ghost - logon/logoff problem

[johnny5]

Im sort of new to using Ghost so maybe im doing something wrong but here's what happened...
My company got about 8 new PC's - all configured the same. I set one of them up with software and everything it needs - the others will have the same thing. I ghosted the drive - put the HD from one of the other machines in as a second drive and restored to it. then put it back in its own machine. When I login, it logs me out immediately. I tried in safe mode and get the same thing. has anyone experienced this? Im sure I can't be the first.

I was using Norton Ghost 9.0

After you put the image on the new drive, you need to change the SID in Windows. I don't know if Ghost 9.0 comes with Ghostwalker, but that's what you use. If you don't do this, then all of the ghosted computers on your network will have the same ID, and Windows does not like this.

how am I supposed to run this. It won't let me on to the computer. I can't do it in safe mode cause I cant get in there either. I tried booting off the windows disc to the command prompt but it won't let me run that even though I gave the admin pwd.
How do I get to where I can change it?

Ghostwalk can't be run from within Windows, it needs to be run from DOS. The Windows XP disk is not DOS, it is the repair console.
