Can i install Win 7 from a System Image on an external hard drive
IE use the image to make the installation on external drive. The 320GB internal drive on my Lenovo T410 has died. Cannot be accessed in any way including external SATA cable.
I happen to have System Image stored in a folder on an external drive that has many other data folders on it. The image was created by windows Backup And Restore "Create A System Image".
Rather than purchase a new internal drive for a computer that I plan to replace in several months I would like to use the system image to install the operating system and data on a second external hard drive that I have available.
In other words is it possible to run my computer normally by installing the Image on an external hard drive? How? Thank you for your time.
