Hi Simon, I mentioned in an earlier note that I'm wanting to take a
snapshot of my Windows partition so that if I need to restore, I can,
without all of the hassle of reinstalling windows and such…
Hope that makes sense and have a great day!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

Dear Cara,
Just out of curiosity and by way of wishing to learn new things that
might be of value, why would you want to create an image of your
windows partition? Is it because you could then restore it should
you have had a crush? Would such a restore also restore your Jaws
with its authorisation?
With best and smiles

Hey Ryan et al' -Success with creating the disc image for
Windows. Ryan, thanks so much for your help. <smile> You rock!…
I have a couple of curious questions; My current partition is 20 gb
and Windows including an install of JFW takes up 3.08 gb. My disc
img is about 8 hundred and something mb so I'm wondering if I did
it right? lol! I think I did, but that's one heck of a good
compression scheme eh?! lol! I know that the empty space isn't
used, so does that sound right?…
Secondly, you'd mentioned that if I wanted to restore from that
img, I could delete the current partition and then go through disc
util to restore; I get this but I'm wondering if I first need to
create another BootCamp partition so that the resulting restore
from the image will be larger than the image itself? I.E. larger
than 3.08 gb?… Am I making sense?…
I'm asking as I'd not needed to restore from an img before, so am
just wondering…
thanks so much and have an awesome night!…
