Anyone know why whenever I restore my W2K boot drive using PowerQuest
Drive Image 7.0, apparently some registry entries are not mirrored
exactly, as some of my programs give error messages saying they are
improperly installed and need re-installed, or that my keycodes don't
match my machine ID codes (as if the OS itself had changed), or
generally fail to show up as registered copies? (I tried emailing
PowerQuest support, but have never gotten a reply.)

I use "Copy Drive" to clone C:\ drive 1 to external backup drive 2...
I use "Ghost /IA /IB /2 /1" on a DOS A: boot floppy to copy the cloned
backup to C:\ sector by sector including the MBR...
