TI ver 9.0 Restore complete C:drive from image file
I want to create a new C: drive by restoring a image file from another hard disk. My new C: drive does not have any Windows OS - the OS is part of the image file. I am running TI v9.0 - build 3854. I have:
1. Rescue CD,
2. 80 GB IDE hard drive (E: drive) with several backup images of complete C: drive.
3. IDE C: drive with suspect Windows XP OS.
I want to remove this 40 GB C: drive, replace it with a new 40 GB IDE drive, and restore the complete C: drive, including OS.
I want to do this so that I have a good replacement for my suspect C: drive. I also want to do this to test out the method I would use if I had a complete failure of my C: drive.
How do I configure my drives for this type of restore: I'm guessing....
11 boot from Rescue CD?
2. New blank 40G as Master?
3. Existing aux Hard Drive (old E:) with multiple image files as slave?
Thanks for your help

Check items 7A & 7B inside my signature link. Since you plan to restore to a same size drive, you can do a disk restore. Have you checked inside your Windows Disk Management feature to look at your partition structure? Do you have only the one partition?
