    Reinstalling Windows 7


    I have created a Disk Image on an external HD using Windows 7 restore process.
    If a need arises, will I be able to boot of the external HD to restore Windows 7.
    I did not use DVDs because the size of the image was around 60GB which would take a lot of disks.
