Thanks for any assistance!

You have confirmed what I have found, thanks. What I don't understand is that when I do a system image backup on a perfectly working system, it is at that point that I want to verify that the backup system image is verified to the correct image. Maybe I am slow, but I don't see the point of verifying the backup system image, to a broken image that you now NEED to restore. Sorry if I am missing something obvious. But please explain if possible. Appreciate your help!

 OK, so I was wrong...I didn't know the free Macrium would even let you put a WinPE disk together by using the WAIK, I always had the impression it only came with the Linux CD and BartPE plugin.

Hello,
I am using the non-commercial freeware 64-bit version and I can not find the page you show. Mine will allow verifying the filesystem before backing up to a system image, but no verification of the backed up system image to the actual data. Confused!
Still can't understand verifying the data during a restore??
Thank you for your help! Any ideas???

Glenn I am using the PRO version but even so I am surprised. In the PRO version it is on the second image definition screen.

Attachment 178265 Yeap, looked there also, no luck. Sent email to Macrium for clarification. Hopefully I am just unable to find it. Oh well! Thanks again!

I get confused easily between 'restore' and 'backup' copies of my computer. When I make a whole backup,I do it for JUST the data on my computer,mostly photos. I tried to do a System Image but 250 GB Iomegga wasn't big enough. My D: recovery disk is almost totally full, and I just cannot use it. I don't know how to delete anything on it either. I have a nice clean running, virus-free computer right now, with all shadowfiles gone (except for whatever is on that D  ...and I would LIKE to make a system image of EVERYTHING on my computer now but ... I really am not sure HOW! Suggestions ? The Iomegga is too small, I guess but are there websites that offer storge that are trustworthy? I'min the Bush of Alaska and am out of DVDs (got a few 700 MB CDs around) so I can't just "pop in" anything! It'll be a week or so before I get any freight in.

I think you are talking about Windows imaging if I'm right? This thread is about Macrium imaging but no matter. Based on what you say you probably want some advice on online backup facility for North America. Unfortunately I can't help here but if someone doesn't notice your thread stick it in the main Backup & Restore section.
You will need a decent bandwidth data link for this to be worthwhile. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Own build (+ Recased Acer Aspire x1800) OS Windows 7x64 Home Premium SP1 x 2 CPU Intel i7 2600k Motherboard ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe Memory G.Skill Ripjaws (DDR3-1600) 2x4GB Graphics Card Nvidia GeForce GTS 450; Intel HD Graphics 3000(GT2+) Monitor(s) Displays Dell Ultrasharp IPS panel U2311H, Samsung SyncMaster P2350 Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Logitech MK520 (wireless) Mouse Logitech MK520 PSU Seasonic M12II 520W Case Lian Li Lancool PC-K60 Cooling Case: 1x120mm, 3x140mm CPU: Hyper 212+ Hard Drives Crucial M4 128GB (000F), Seagates 1TB Barracuda ST31000528AS + Internet Speed 6-7 Mbps Antivirus Norton NIS, Malwarebytes on 2 (MSE on 3rd PC) Browser FireFox Other Info Audio: Logitech Z523 2.1 Image your system with free Macrium problems?
