Xing Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Windows Vista includes a SystemRestore function which allows making a complete image of the system partition. Saving the disk image to an external USB drive works just fine. Also, writing the image back to the bootcamp Windows Vista partition also seem to work fine at first sight. But unfortunately, SystemRestore screws the OSX partition and the MacBookPro fails to boot. Any clue how to make such life-saving hdd images when using Bootcamp 1.3?

BlackShadowWolf Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I use Net Restore http://www.bombich.com/software/netrestore.html If you follow the instructions right, it can make a disk image with a .ntfs extension that has your entire Vista filesystem on it. Whats nice as you can set it to only clone data so its only about the size of how much space youve used up. It also comes with a good restore app thats pretty easy. Try it, its freeware I'll write a how-to in a few days on the steps I use, I need to make a new image anyway . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
