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.

                  good luck,
                      John.

    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
