Best way / possible way to create a Win7 restore image
There was a System restore partition on the hard-drive of my PC, but this was for Vista. I have since upgraded to Win7 and in the process, the recovery partition was removed.
What I want to do is get everything installed on the PC that I need...Drivers, Updates, Win7, Office, Anti-Virus etc....to have a working system. I then want to create an image / clone / recovery file that can be extracted onto the C: drive and restore it back to this position.
I looked at creating an image file using software that was mentioned on here, but it was going to take approx. 12 DVD's to complete!
Appreciate that storing the image on an external drive may be / is best, but I need to make sure it's going to be easy to do and then restore. Moreover, how does the image get restored?
Sorry for the questions.
