You may face the behavior of GHO file due to logical corruption to the source drive. You can face serious data loss situations and have to fix this to gain access of your data.
Norton Ghost can not detect corruption on source drive while creating Ghost image. In such conditions you first check the drive using disk repair utilities before creating a Ghost image. To carry out this task, you can use CHKDSK utility. It is in-built software of Windows operating system that is used to check integrity of file system on hard drive.
Logical problems with the drive generally occur due to damage in the file system or other metadata structure. Due to damage in metadata structure operating system can not locate the files and thus can not access data from them.
To resolve this problem with file system of source drive you need to format the hard drive and reinstall the operating system. Hard drive formatting is the process of setting up a new file system. It removes all the disk related errors and makes the hard drive usable.
Although hard drive formatting is usable in getting rid of hard drive errors, but it also has a downside. Formatting removes all the data from hard drive and cause serious data loss situations.
To resolve such data loss situation file recovery is required. It is the method of retrieving data from hard drive or other storage media that can not be accessed in easy way.
You can easily recover your lost, missing and inaccessible files in case of hard drive formatting using third party file recovery software. These are easy to use applications that allow you to effectively scan formatted hard drive and retrieve data from it.
Before attempting any file recovery software in this case, you should make sure that the particular software can recover GHO file.
