Q: I need a link to download Ghost 11.exe

Can someone give me a link to download version 11 of Ghost.exe , I tried previous version of Ghost but it doesn't work, Help me please. Thanks

Ben N

Fairly certain Ghost is a commercial thing

That said, it comes with a certain semi-popular, freely-available Windows-related tool pack :)

DavidPostill

Ghost (software)

Ghost (an acronym for general hardware-oriented system transfer) is a disk cloning and backup tool originally developed by Murray Haszard in 1995 for Binary Research. The technology was acquired in 1998 by Symantec. The backup and recovery functionality has been replaced by Symantec System Recovery (SSR), although the Ghost imaging technology is still actively developed and is available as part of Symantec Ghost Solution Suite. == History == Binary Research developed Ghost in Auckland, New Zealand. After the Symantec acquisition, a few functions (such as translation into other languages) were moved...

Burgi

its just a terrible question and one that could certainly be solved by 5 minutes with a search engine

DavidPostill

@Burgi Not if you are looking for a cracked copy ;)

But then any smart person would not use pirate software to backup ...

Hmm, it seems like it could conceivably be on-topic (computer hardware), but might be too broad

<haven't VtC'd>

Burgi

i like how it has "Do not touch!" printed on the board

it doesn't look like computing hardware

DavidPostill

Hmm.

Ben N

@Burgi Ah, true

Ben N

It's not strictly off-topic here, but it probably would go better over there

Burgi

18:38

thats what i was thinking

Ben N

It's the poster's choice to migrate in such situations

There should totally be a way for users to unilaterally migrate their questions if they're unanswered and there's a note from a highish-rep user about the other site

Burgi

really?

not even a rep limit on the migration?

Ben N

Hmm, maybe the 250 to view close votes might be an appropriate limit

Currently, flagging for mod attention (15 rep) is how it's done, and I think those flags are always accepted

DavidPostill

@BenN Hmm. I think any mod would refuse to migrate if it wasn't a good fit at the other end.

Ben N

Right, it has to be on-topic at the target

I should have clarified that, sorry

DavidPostill

18:43

"The golden rule of migration has always been "don't migrate crap" but lately the bar has been raised a little higher. I usually try not to migrate questions unless I think the community on the other site would actively want the question on their site, as opposed to just not minding it being there."

A: Flag to migrate: bad practice, bad timing, or bad call?

Migration to other sites can be a thorny issue. I can see two reasons for not migrating that question to the Unix & Linux site. While it's not a terrible question, it's not the highest quality either. The author didn't use complete sentences and didn't show a lot of research effort. The gold...

Burgi

i do think they should have all the sites in the "off-topic" bit and have a little search box to select the correct site

DavidPostill

Bill the Lizard was a mod IIRC but he resigned

Ben N

Correct

And fair enough, it would be good to check for dupes at the target

(Good reason to have a rep limit on this fictional ability)

DavidPostill

As an aside, why are so many Excel questions really bad? 90% of them are "gimme the codez" along with absolutely no effort and no images or tables of their data. Of the other 10% most of them are incomprehensible.

Ben N

Excel is a super common program and I guess a lot of not-super-technical people want to do interesting things with it

Without thinking of what it would take to adequately answer the question

DavidPostill

18:52

@BenN figures (pun intended) :p

Ben N

Clearly we should create a Psychics SE site and migrate the questions there

I think SO could use that migration path too

DavidPostill

@BenN Yeah, if I'm feeling grumpy I include "Do you think we are mind readers" as part of a comment ;)

Ben N

Raymond Chen's posts about psychic debugging are great

DavidPostill

@BenN lol

Today I'm feeling grumpy because I can't find any decent questions I can answer. I haven't gained any rep for 2 days and I'm getting withdrawal symptoms ;)

Ben N

Heh, I've been on sabbatical for a few weeks, first for real life stuff (yay exams!) and then to launch the Deep Web SE site

Speaking of the Deep Web private beta, want to join?

DavidPostill

18:58

@BenN Exams? Did they appear to go OK?

Ben N

Yep, all good

DavidPostill

@BenN Anybody can join (and I have). We had this discussion a day or so ago.

Ben N

Oh, did I mention it already? Cool

@Nick Click https://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/87978/deep-web/visit then go to the bottom and click "Visit the site now!"

Ben N

Right, the Area 51 page link is publicly usable; it's still called "private beta" though, I guess there's not a concise name that describes the stage

DavidPostill

19:00

You don't need an invite ;)

I think the private beta means it's not indexed by Gargle?

Ben N

Ah, that makes sense; you need to register first

You might even say it's part of the deep web in this stage!

Those requirements were relaxed some time ago - if someone is interested enough in a site that they would click a link in the area51 proposal, then why shouldn't they participate? — Oded ♦ May 18 at 13:24

Ben N

Indeed, and that's a good thing

Burgi

19:13

what is deep web about?

Ben N

Parts of the Internet not accessible to standard search engines

Stuff like Freenet and Tor hidden services

Burgi

does it include sites blocked with robots.txt?

Ben N

I'm not sure, we're still hammering out the details of our scope

Burgi

hope i haven't put the kaibosch on it with that question...

does it also cover intranets?

Ben N

I don't think so, it has to be part of the Internet, as in accessible from basically anywhere

Burgi

19:18

has anyone invented a tor search engine?

Ben N

Like one that searches Tor hidden services for links to other hidden services? I'm not aware of one

You might ask that!

Burgi

i was kind of thinking of a google-esque site on the TOR network to index and catalogue the content

based on my limited knowledge of the system probably a yahoo directory type thing would be better

Rahul Basu

@Burgi deepweb.se answers all your questions 😉

ramsay

heya! can i ask question about "internet connection" or this is off topic?

Ben N

What do you mean?

That Brazilian Guy

@ramsay you sure can! Please provide us the link

ramsay

In my home me and my sister uses internet but my sister uses on iphone i don't know why but, when she browses my internet speed goes down
so is there a way to increase my speed and decrease her speed(*me is using computer*)

i think this is off topic, isn't it?

Ben N

20:25

Well, networking is on-topic, but I'm not sure we'll be able to provide any useful answers from just that

ramsay

"any useful answers from just that" this means this site needs more information(i am ready to give)

Ben N

Right, we'll need more details

ramsay

like what?

That Brazilian Guy

You should write a question on the main site. It will be seen by more people than just us here now

ramsay

i was asking whether this question is eligible for this site or not?

That Brazilian Guy

20:34

@ramsay The topic is on topic, but you'll need to provide more details, or it will probably be downvoted

Elaborate a little

Burgi

include diagnostics data in the question

ramsay

what is "diagnostics data"?

Burgi

pings, traceroutes, speedtests, etc

ramsay

oh ok

That Brazilian Guy

Also the network layout: both devices use Wi-Fi? One uses wired and other 3G? Have you tested if the issue persists on wifi and wired? Etc etc

ramsay

20:42

ya both uses wifi

Hi all

I returned my ASUS Z170M to the store and bought a new low end (but DDR4 :D) Gigabyte GA-Z170M-D3H which has just enough PCIe for my 980 and 81605ZQ (GPU and RAID) and it POSTs with the 980 as the primary video device !!!!!

It doesn't have thunderbolt or USB 3.1 but it has very good USB 3.0 support and is still a Sunrise Point-H chipset at its core

Literally the only thing I have left to do is install the storage hardware and wire it up and close up the case
