    Hi guys.... I'm just wondering has anybody dumped a Ghost boot disk to a usb device?.......and did you manage to get your machine to boot from the USB?
    Maybe it's not possible, sure would be handy though.....

    That's what I'm hoping. Timeout told me today he reckons the newer pc's do. I'm hoping it's possible. In a net cafe, it would make putting back images that bit handier.

    TOTALLY depends on the Bios of the machine.

    Check for updates from teh mobo manufacturer.
