Drive Image is essentially the same as Norton Ghost and does the same
thing plus more. Powerquest was bought out by Symantec after D.I.
2002. D.I. also creates images in compressed format and restores them
to hard drives, but I didn't realize it won't restore to a smaller
drive. I even tried the Drive Copy function with the same result.
Have you tried this with Ghost to see if it actually works? I can get
my hands on Ghost 5.1.
