Hi Everyone! The above subject line states my opinion though I'm prepared to stick with it <smile>.
I won't go over all that Image does as we'd be here for a good few hours talking about the many virtues, features and functions of the software but I would like to share with you my latest experience with Image For Windows. As list members would know I now have a brand new Desktop PC running Windows which I'm enjoying very much. In the days of my old Desktop PC I ran Image for Windows on a regular basis to backup that particular system, Image For Windows would backup the hard drives of that system to my Time Capsule and I could restore it from thus whenever required. So new computer, new installation of Image for Windows and time to work out what I may require from the old PC backup. At first glance it looked as though I wouldn't be able to easily restore what I wanted from the old PC backup to the new, Image for Windows - in standard restoration mode -offers the ability to install by partition - byte-by-byte and whilst that's perfectly logical I didn't want to ruin my current installation of Windows so for a solution? Well that was found with one of the utilities that's installed alongside Image For Windows called TB-Mount. Put simply this utility mounts a backup as a drive thus you can browse it as you would any other hard drive on your computer so finding and restoring what you exactly want is just a matter of browsing the drive, finding what you want, copying and then pasting the desired object or files to another location, how nifty is that! There are several other utilities I received with Image For Windows including a fully featured accessible keyboard controlled DOS restoration utility which - I hope - will work with a DOS screen reader wel enough in some way for me to accomplish a full Windows restore to a machine with an empty hard drive? Here's hoping <smile>. ======================================= The Techno-Chat E-Mail forum is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free To modify your subscription options, please visit for forum's dedicated web pages located at http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/techno-chat You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Techno-Chat group at either of the following websites: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/techno-chat/index.html Or: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> you may also subscribe to this list via RSS.
