Hi John,

I am not familar with this software but could you use the linux version to restore your hd?

Speakup is a screen review system for linux and can be patched in to the kernel so that speech comes up early in the boot system.

Hi Everybody, I've emailed Terabyte this evening on the subject of
imaging to another drive, and, more to the point the fact that the
option isn't open to blind users to do that owing to the lack of speech
in a pre-windows environment. I received a strange reply. See what you
think. I've pasted below both my email to them and their reply.

hi, I am a blind user of Image For Windows. My problem is this. Although
imaging to DVD works excellently where possible, in situations where DVD
isn't an option it isn't possible for a blind person, hence a
screenreader user to image to another drive as you in fact recommend, or
rather it isn't possible to restore an image, due to the lack of speech
in a pre-windows environment.
Would it be possible for restore settings to be made from within
Windows? It wouldn't seem to be possible as it stands, as when I've
tried it won't work as of course the C drive is in use and consequently
locked.
It would be wonderful for people in my situation if it were possible to
make the restore settings, then for Image For Windows to reboot and restore.
I hope your developers can give this consideration. If you need to get
back to me my email address is johncoley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks,
John.
Hello,
Image for Linux has speakup available. The speakup.txt document is found
in the help folder when you extract image for linux.
