    How to create System Repair Disc for 64 bit


    Hello,
    When I try to Restore System image from backup I've got this error:
    "The selected system image cannot be restored in this recovery environment"
    Browsing this Forum I noticed that folks found that this message could be when one created 32 bit Repair disc and tries to Restore 64 bit OS.
    In my case I created a disc on Windows 7 Enterprise PC. I am trying to Restore Windows 7 64 bit machine.
    My question: when user creates a Repair disc does he has the option to specify 32 vs. 64 bit?
    I simply thought that since I'm on 64 bit system it'll create 64 bit Repair disc ... but maybe I'm wrong and I created 32 bit Disc...
    Could someone please highlight it?
    Thanks

    I found the problem in my case:
    I created Repair disc on Windows 7 32 bit but started to Restore image on Windows 7 64 bit.
    After I created another Repair disc on PC running 64 bit I did not have an issue to Restore my image.
