Problem
You have used the Ghost Console to dump an image from a Client incorporating Microsoft's Sysprep. When the Client computer reboots, it boots to the Virtual Partition rather than Windows.
Solution
This is working as designed. Ghost reboots the client to the Virtual Partition so that at this point you can perform another task on this computer. Running a Refresh Configuration Task will take the machine out of the Virtual Partition and boot into the O/S.
If you do not want to run another task and would rather reboot to Windows, letting Sysprep continue with the configuration changes, you can use the following command:
ngctdos -hide
If the problem persists, check the document 'Cannot exit from the Ghost Virtual Boot Partition' available at http://service1.symantec.com/support/on-technology.nsf/docid/2001121316082525?Open&seg=w
