Hi Billy, yes it will. It'll spit the first one out and ask for the next one. I keep my image to a single dvd, because it's more straightforward, but you can back up to as many dvd's as it takes. You'll find though that when it's more than one, because it does things in a certain order it'll ask you to take one out and put the next one in, then to put the first one back in and so on,so you'd have to keep the disks in order. I can't say why it does things the way it does, but I imagine the second time it asks for a dvd it's either checking it or writing some more to it. The easiest way in our position is limiting the image to one dvd, but if you're in the habit of using your c drive for storage you're just going to have to put up with the messing around. As for restoring it's just a case of waiting till it spits one out and putting the next one in. Never having done a multi-disk backup though I can't say how easy or not you may find it. If you just do a single dvd image though it's a piece of cake.

Hi John, sorry if I'm a little late on this thread, but I'm really Interested in this Image for windows. One question please; If you need more than one dvd to copy your C drive,will the software ask for the next disk, after the first one is completed?,PS. How difficult or easy is it to restore the Image from the disk, wil it just run and install?, Billy -----Original Message-----From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf OfANDY COLLINS Sent: 07 November 2011 15:55 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: a little guide to image for windowsThanks John for this.

The first screen gives options for different backups and restores. It defaults to full backup, so if that's what you're going to do just press enter on next. The second screen is where you tell it what partition you want to backup. If you want to back up your C partition choose the second in the list.The next screen is where you tell it where to save the image. If you're going to image to CD or DVD arrow down to your burner. Next screen it will ask you for a file name. It will have an autogenerated one, so just delete that and put a file name in. I use the date.Remember to put the .TBI file extention at the end. The next screen has a lot of check boxes, all of which for general purposes are left alone. Just press next.The last screen just confirms what it's going to do. Tab a few times tillyou get to the start button and press it. Hopefully you'll have a disk in the drive. Assuming you have it'll just do the image. You'll get a progress bar, so you'll know how it's going. You'll hear it count to 100 percent, then, depending on the options you've set it may count up to 100 again, and then it will spit the drawerout, and ask you to insert the disk again. Just close the drawer and pressenter. This is assuming it's a single DVD. As I said earlier multi disk images get more involved. When it's finished it will eject the drawer and you'll get a close button. That's it. Take the disk out, close the drawer, click the close button and you're done.
