Sorry - it's not. 2000 or XP have it I beleive. Raid controllers are pretty
cheap too.

When Ghosting it shuts the system down and boots it from a temporary virtual
partition into DOS, loads the lan drives and maps the drive, then ghosts to
the drive.

By "don't want," what difference does it make what format it's in as long as
you can do what you want to do?

I've got Windows 98. I've never heard of RAID being built into it.

How can Ghost create an image for the C: drive while running in Windows?
From
the info on their website, it looks like it just creates the kind of backup
image I don't want.
