Win7PE or something like that for dell

tonyvr4 · 30 Jul 2010

I have an old Preinstalled Environment CD that I used to use for troubleshooting when I had vista. I am not sure, but I think it was BartPE.

Is there anything similar with Windows 7 64-bit?

I also do not have system disks since Windows 7 came already on my laptop

Thanks

Is this the same as a system repair disc?

I went into control panel/backup and restore and the options on the left do not show system recovery disk like the screen in the message

Yep, that's the same as a repair disc.

The option to create a repair disc is not in Backup. Check out this tutorial: System Repair Disc - Create

Does it take many DVD's to create an image backup?

Ah, thanks for that Ray.

According to the tutorial, you can enter recdisc.exe into the start menu to pull it up.

Move you add to the HD, bigger the back.

It usually takes 3-5 DVDs.
