For a long time I have used a program called image for windows which works
very well for making an image of a drive. I use to boot from a dos disk
and restore back to the windows drive that way. You can not of course run
it from within windows to restore the same system, which brings me to my
sort of problem. I had to buy their latest version as I wanted to back up
my seven partition before I upgraded, just in case.
I have used the talking windows seven boot disk, but never had any luck
getting my image for windows program to run there to restore an image, as
it has to be installed. Hope all this is making sense. I have not tried
their newest version yet. They do give you a way to automatically create
a bootable cd to restore an image, which of course doesn't have any
speech. I think their manual says it is a version of xp which runs their
program. What I'm wanting to do is to somehow make their cd come up
talking, or find some way to run the image program from the talking
windows seven boot cd.
Just wondering if you've ever used this program. it is similar to and the
closest thing I've found to ghost which I used long long ago. If you are
at all interested in taking a look, I can send you the manual or whatever
else you might need. You are much much better at this sort of thing than
I am.
Thanks. Good luck on your upgrade. Later.
BTW, I read somewhere that after the deadline, supervisors could still
give permission to do an upgrade.
