    Hi all,
    
    Given the situation of a Windows (any flavour from 95 to 2000) partition 
    which has been Norton Ghosted to a laptop, can anyone think of a way to 
    determine when (date) that ghosting took place, or failing that when the 
    system was booted for the first time thereafter (assuming that it has been 
    booted a number of times after that)?
    
    So far the file timestamps and registry entries I've looked at give me 
    either dates relating to when the system from which the image was made was 
    first created or from when the laptop was last booted, nothing related to 
    when the image was first copied to the laptop or first used.
    
    Perhaps there just isn't a way but I'd be grateful if someone could point 
    out anything obvious which I may have missed!
    
    Many thanks,
    
    Mac
