Marijan,
It will depend on your hardware. If you create the clone of your main hard
drive on a secondary internal hard drive, then all you need to do is have
your BIOS configured to boot from that secondary hard drive. Since your
clone will contain a copy of your Windows operating system, a copy of JAWS,
and a copy of the Casper backup software, you would simply run the Casper
program to copy everything from the secondary drive to your primary drive.
If you are backing up your primary hard drive to an external USB drive, the
procedure is different, because Windows XP and Vista don't permit booting
from an external USB hard drive.
Future Systems Solutions, the maker of Casper, have a work-around for this
limitation. You can create a bootable CD which contains a copy of Windows
and the Casper program. This will permit you to do a restore from an
external USB, but you will not have any speech, since you are booting from a
CD.
