Can Norton Ghost clone PCs of different configuration
I have an older P3 computer running Windows XP and has a 8G hard disk. Can I clone this P3 computer into a newer P4 comupter running Windows XP and has a 60G hard disk? I was considering cloning via TCP/IP since both PCs are connected to the same home router.

Well, you can clone it over to the newer machine, but it's not going to start. You will have to do a repair install to correct all the driver issues.

hal is right, you can only clone "like" machines. most of the time with XP if it notices different drivers/hardware it wont boot. we have this issue at school, we can only ghost Dell machines to other Dell machines with with close the same system specs.
