Ghosting

If I ghosted my computer, can I put the image onto my friends computer, or would there be hardware conflicts and such because we have different components?

yeah... it probably wouldn't work right.
You'd have install & uninstall so much stuff it'd hardly be worth it.

Unless it was a fresh install of Windows... But in that case, why not just install Windows on both? heh

Oh, my bad. Yes, it was a prefectly fresh install of windows. NOTHING else installed.

Installing Windows takes 49 minuts. Installing a ghosted image take aaround 10 min.

Just wanted to save some time.

Think about all the drinking you could do in those 39 extra minutes while your waiting for windows to install
