Hi Richard. OK, here is the link: http://www.accessible-devices.com/ImageForWindows.html You can use Image For Windows in that way, but the tutorials on the above page teach you how to use a recovery disk since this is the only way of using the program if you have no sighted assistance available during the restore process. All the best, Ibrahim. ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Godfrey-McKay To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, August 23, 2010 12:04 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: disk image Hi Ibrahim, I'd be interested in that link too please. Am I right in thinking that you could take a complete image of your hard drive and recover that from an external USB drive in case of problems? Presumably you'd just need sighted assistance to tell the PC to look for the external drive?

There's Image for Windows from Terabyte Unlimited, this is accessible software for creating recovery disks which you can use to restore a complete image of your C partition or indeed any partition for that matter even on a completely blank and unformatted hard drive. I have somewhere a link to an audio tutorial of someone using this with jaws, but if you want to give it a go while I rustle it up, you can get the program from www.terabyteunlimited.com. Alas it isn't free but reasonably priced so give it a go, you've nothing to lose. All the best, Ibrahim. ----- Original Message ----- From: david pritchard To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, August 23, 2010 10:41 AM Subject: [access-uk] disk image Hi list, I would like to create an image backup of my c partition. My pc is an Acer running win 7 64 bit. It comes complete with it's own backup manager which has the ability to create a disk image. Unfortunately, it's not very accessible. Can anyone recommend a suitable application which would allow me to create an image backup and then restore from it.
