How to create a disk Image in Windows 8

I want to do something real Basic.  I think I know how, but the confirmation of the need.  I want a disk Image full of my hard drives so that if my hard next week C drive crashes I can quickly return to normal (normal, the way which was when I made the image).  I do not view the files in the Image or anything else.  I just want to avoid the week it would completely re - install everything.  With regard to data (not the files system etc, but my personal data), I have another solution for this.  I think that the option of recovering files in Windows 7 in Windows 8 will do what I want in what concerns the creation of an image, but I want to be sure.  I think everything I do is as follows:
In Windows 7 File Recovery select "create a System Image" and the backup on external media.  I think I also need to create a System Image repair disc.  Once this is done, if my C disk fails tomorrow I think that all I have to do, is as follows:
Put the recovery disk in my hard drive.  Start the computer to the reader and follow the instructions to copy the stuff on my external hard drive through my C drive.
Is the above, real or not?

You guessed it... The system image is an image of the reserved system & windows partitions.

With any Microsoft windows 8 install or update of the same bits of DVD or the same bits win8 system repair disc, put on cd, dvd or USB stick bootable... you can use it to boot from and there are simply in your sysem image and any hard drive of equal or greater size.    Will probably work.  Can never say for sure 100%.    its good to have a 2nd source of images and program to run it.  EaseUS ToDo Macrium or something.    Reads the command RecImg & what he does.

  • VIPerlToolkit: How to create a disk image

    Hello

    I was wondering how to create a new floppyimage in a data store using the viperltoolkit as if it was possible in the dialog box editing a virtual machine (see the screenshot).

    I think there must be two steps (hidden):

    1. create the *.flp file in the specified storage (but how?)

    2 use this file as a support for the floppy device (I'm able to do this )

    Can someone help me with the first? I couldn't find any method that could be the one.

    Thanks, Chris

    External DVD USB drives are cheap. Usually $20 for a good quality player. Just buy one of these at Best Buy or another store and use it to install Snow Leopard. Then you also have a drive for something else that you have on the disk.

    Hello

    You have certainly reduced your options

    The only legal Windows 7 download available is now Microsoft, as Microsoft has stopped DigitalRiver Windows 7 ISO downloads.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery

    But Microsoft only provides these downloads for Windows 7 keys to selling product at retail, not preinstalled OEM product keys (Dell, HP, etc.).

    As you have licensed preinstalled OEM (Dell, HP, etc.), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they need to provide for a fee, if they still have them available.

    Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

    See you soon.

  • How to create a rotating image with links

    Hello, I am a novice when it comes to Web design. I created this site for my business...

    I was told to create an image of rotation on the home page that performs a cycle 5 images that each have a unique integrated link. I know how to create a rotating image in Flash and publish it in SWF, but it does not work on an iPhone, etc.

    I would avoid using Flash, unless there is a new way to export and also if there are unique links for each image (5).

    I use Dreamweaver CS6 on a PC.

  • Satellite U500-10F - creating recovery disk after upgrade Windows 7

    I bought a Satellite U500-10th with Vista OS and I decided to upgrade to Windows 7, so I ordered at Toshiba upgrade disk and installed it.

    * My question is *: * it is possible to create with Windows 7 recovery discs? * in order to avoid the downside to install vista first then do the upgrade to windows 7

    Whenever I need to do a clean install and also to avoid the disadvantage that it is not too recommended to validate windows whenever you perform a clean installation, because the problems of authenticity can emerge with microsoft!

    Thank you

    Hi m.tarek,

    I doubt that this would be possible. First of all, you have ordered only an upgrade, which means that this version can be installed on a pre-installed version of Vista. It is not a full version that you can install without BONES.

    Besides recovering the files on the second partition (btw, that's a picture) contains the Vista operating system and not Windows 7. It does not update.

    Sorry mate, but this is why there will always be this update of s. Alternative, you can create your own image using Acronis True Image or other imaging software.

  • How to create USB bootable for installing Windows 7?

    Hello world

    I run Windows 7 and want to reinstall but did not a resumption of discs and missing hard disk image. I got a copy of Windows 7 and tried to make a bootable usb key with WinSetupFromUSB and Novicorp_20WinToFlash programs but without success. Is there another method to do?
    The Bios supports the USB key.

    Thank you

    Sorry for my English (I'm German)

    Hello

    I don't know why you can't make a bootable USB stick with the programs you mentioned. It is very easy. The link suggested by peterk_1 is also useful and can help you.

    You can also try to do as below:

    1. Insert the USB key which should not be less than 4 GB for Windows 7.
    2 run as administrator at the command prompt.
    3 type Diskpart and press ENTER, then List Disk and Enter. You will see the disc all available, including Usb flash on your computer. In my case, usb flash is determined as disk 1 in your may be disc 2, so type:

    If yours is disc 2 you choose select disk 2 (thus, in each order line)

    SELECT the DISC 1 press enter

    CLEAN, press enter

    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY, press enter

    SELECT PARTITION 1 press enter

    ACTIVE press enter

    FORMAT FS = NTFS press Enter

    Note for quick formatting, you can use FS = NTFS QUICK

    ASSIGN, press enter

    EXIT, press enter

    Do not close the command prompt window, disc insert Windows 7 dvd and check what letter is assigned to the cd/dvd drive. In my case, you s F:

    So:

    Type in F: and press ENTER, then

    F:\ BOOTSECT. EXE NT60 H: H;? is assigned to the USB key into your computer, it may be another letter.

    Now, you just need to copy all the folders on windows dvd disc. That's all

    Alles Gute!

  • How to create a disk to reboot

    I need to create a disk to reboot, how do I do this?

    Hi Ian,

    What do you mean by ' reboot disc? I think "Repair disk" for the windows operating system, but I don't know if I'm on the right track. If I am, then click the Start button, followed by all programs. Scroll to the maintenance option and click on it. The menu will grow and you should see an option called "create a system repair disc". Click it to start the process. Do not forget to insert a blank disc into your CD/DVD drive, and then click the option 'create disc '.

    If this is not what you are looking for then please provide more information, and we can try and help you.

  • When I try to create a system image in Windows 7, I get the error 0x8078002A and 0x8007045D code

    I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and try to create a system image on my 3 TB USB 3.0 Seagate Expansion. A few seconds after the start, the backup fails and displays the message:

    The backup failed.

    One of the files of backup could not be created. (0x8078002A)

    Additional information:
    The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error. (0x8007045D)

    I tried to create a system image to multiple computers, which results in the same error codes. I reformatted the disk and run chkdsk, but to no avail. If anyone has any ideas they would be greatly appreciated.

    I suggest avoid you the Windows backup program and you get a good commercial backup program. This forum is frought with for a windows problem reports. I know that I was very impressed when I tried it. Two me are familiar with and like Norton Ghost (which I use for 7 years without the 1st problem) and Memeo, which has 30 day free trial and you can buy it for $29.99 - you can download it from http://memeo.com. You can get Ghost for almost nothing (like me), if you look at the sales.

    CNET has a lot of reviews of backup program to

    http://download.CNET.com/Windows/backup-software/?tag=contentBody;sideBar

    .

    Some of them are free (the last time I checked there over 300), some have free trials (more), and some are buying only (more than 200).

    Good luck
