Is the mounted volume correct (i.e. if you chkdsk it are there any errors)?
Even if there are, chkdsk retruns the same result for the original drive as the drive as backed up by Ghost.
The real issue is why, for particular imaged volumes, sometimes the program hangs and othertimes the program does not hang. If there were a problem with the imaged volume, then the result should be the same every time.

Other than that have you tried ghosting the image to a test machine and running the app on a real version rather than the image?
The idea is to directly process any logical volume that is already on hard drives or are mounted by backup programs.
Copying the backup image to disk is really a test of whether the image is restore correctly. Of course, if there is a problem in the image, and that problem is perpetuated to a hard drive, that migh be worth checking.
However, I have no drive on which to restore the drive, so Im outta luck in trying this.

Also is there anything different between the images that work and the ones that dont?
Each image is a backup of a real drive.
The depth of the directory hierarchy is the same for te Acronis and Ghost images,as well as the real drive. The number of files varies slightly, but the code is not dependent on the number of files (unless I list them in the ListBox).

Other than that I get a feeling a call to tech support may be in order.
Symantec tech support is rather useless.
