So far I have read the 8 or so printed pages availabel which show the intro to Macrium.
I could follow that in the post here with the pics that didn't print.
But a couple of things. First to gather the right hardware. 1 PC, one or more HDDs, the external USB storage and-- what (?) the dvd drive to run the rescue disk at a time when a rescue is needed?
Just now I have the PC, 2 HDD and a DVD drive.
What sort of format is on the USB?-- something set up by Rufus to use a boot source?
This all seems like the long way around for the simple straight line of a clone job.
After the hardware setup, should one just start from scratch and make a partition for Win7 which
can be imaged, then retrieved if, as happened to me, a meltdown occurs that only effects
Win7 and not repairable with just the bootrec procedures?
No rush on answering. I have another task that needs doing. What I have for Macrium is just
using one PC I have to practice on.
Oh, and I copied out that AOMIE driver that hanged a machine that had the program itself removed-- one reason I wanted to avoid using that. Macrium seems more stable and non invasive:
windows\system32\drivers\ambakdrv.sys\ or something close.
