If you are looking for a Norton Ghost ISO to use on a modern UEFI-based computer, you are likely encountering a significant technical hurdle.
Symantec (now Gen Digital) officially discontinued Norton Ghost in 2013. After version 15, there were no updates. No UEFI support. No Secure Boot compatibility. No NVMe driver support.
You cannot buy a legitimate license from Norton today. Any “ISO link” you find on torrent sites, archive.org, or random forums is either:
If you burn an old Norton Ghost ISO (e.g., Ghost 8.3, Ghost 11.5 boot CD) to a USB or DVD and try to boot it on a UEFI system:
Important: Norton Ghost is discontinued and no longer supported. It relied on legacy BIOS environments and older disk imaging formats; it does not provide an official UEFI-bootable ISO. Attempting to use unofficial or leaked ISOs risks malware, incompatibility, and data loss. Below is a safe, practical guide to accomplish similar tasks (disk imaging, backup, cloning) on UEFI/GPT systems and recommended modern alternatives.
Modern PCs (2012 onward) use UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) with GPT (GUID Partition Table).
Let’s say you want a bootable USB that works on any modern PC (UEFI, Secure Boot off/on):
No Ghost. No legacy BIOS tricks. No sketchy links.
