Ok, Ghost USB *used* to work....

[Higgins]

Odd. I have a laptop drive in a USB 1.1 enclosure that I have used to
Ghost my old Thinkpad x20 in the past. Now I'm using the same version
of Ghost (Systemworks Pro 2003), the same OS (Windows 2000) and the
same enclosure on my newer Thinkpad T23, but Ghost doesn't recognize
the USB drive.

Either booting from the floppy or from the Ghost Windows wizard, it
crunches through a couple messages about the Iomega driver, then says
"no drive letters added". And, no surprise, the external drive is not
accessible. My OS is fully updated, Ghost is updated, I updataed the
Ghost aspi1394.sys and aspiechi.sys files. For now, I've added a new
partition on my internal drive, Ghosted to that then copy the image
over to my USB drive. But I'd like to do it straight to the USB drive.
Any suggestions? Thanks

Did you add a USB hub? Change USB keyboard setting?

No hubs, no USB keyboard involved. I've also tried both of my USB ports,,,
