Hi Carol.
As far as I'm aware, you can use the program unlimited for a period of 30 days
before you have to pay for it. I can't tell if there are any restrictions but
I will investigate this and inform you if I find out what they are. As for the
demo, there are two demo files, one is creating an image and one is recovering,
so check them both out. The recovery process is extremely straight forward
however as the first dvd or cd you use is made bootable by the program and will
wipe and completely restore the computer to the backed up state with a couple
of keystrokes.
All the best, Ibrahim.

I've listened to the demo and read about the programme. How does this
compare with Norton Ghost in terms of restoring an image?
I note the programme is shareware, but what can you and can't you do before
purchase?

There is at least one accessible imaging program that you can use to make
an image of your system and to restore it without sighted help. It's called
image for windows and you can read mor at.

Hi Ibrahim, given the inaccessibility of imaging programs you'd be much
better served to make an unattended windows install. You can incorporate
drivers and slipstream service packs and updates using NLite. OK, you'll have
to install all your programs etc, and recompile your address book, but that's
nothing. As for jaws you can save your settings, and put them in a folder along
with all your programs which you can then put onto a cd so that everything's
ready to hand.
In case you haven't had any experience of building an unattended
windows cd you can learn all about it here.

Hi Lyn.
Its quite OK, you've been very helpful and I much appreciate your time
and commitment to finding out an answer to my enquiry. The reason I was
interested was because I wanted to make a DVD of my system in what I call a
clean state IE windows XP installed, drivers and necessary utilities and the
like all preconfigured and ready to put access tech on along with the everyday
software I used. I was hoping I could just insert the DVD after wiping my
system clear of data completely and that a complete image of my hard drive
including partition structure and files be placed automatically without me
having to manually intervene or answer any questions. Since NG may need
command lines and as I don't have a floppy disk drive for my laptop, I don't
think this solution is the most practical for me. If anyone reading this
message does know of a solution similar to that I am looking for, kindly let me
know and I will investigate.
Thanks once again for your support.

Hi Ibrahim,
I asked a computer instructor about your question related to Norton
Ghost 2003. He did tell me that you can definitely create boot up floppies and
that there is a way to put the image of that floppy onto a CD but he can't
remember how to do it as it is rather involved. As for an unattended install of
your image, you have to enter command lines but he has no clue as to how this
is done. I am sorry I am not able to help there. I can try and find out for you
if you like. However, if your Windows is still operational, you can definitely
restore an image yourself without sighted asistance, this is what I do.
Take care,
Lyn & Twinny
