Yea I'm copying software and windows 7 which is about 38.66gb

 

[microbillgates]

How good is 16% in 40 minutes sound for imageing?

 

[ignatzatsonic]

Not good.

It takes me 5 minutes total with Macrium.

But it is dependent on your PC's horsepower, the size of the partition imaged, and the particular software used.

My laptops horse power it really bad look at my specs
I'm imageing 38gb of data

Yeah, I noticed you were puny.

I image about 30 GB in 5 minutes.

You say 38 GB of "data". Do you mean personal files as opposed to Windows? I would not rely on imaging to back up my personal files.

 

[microbillgates]

Thats everything on my Hard drive
I also plan to backup personal files at a later time

 

[richc46]

Back up your stuff with Karens Replicator, see my first post. You will love it.

 

[microbillgates]

I'll do that in about an hour
Still imaging windows

See what happens if you ask for opinions and recommendations? Now you have a lot of deciding to do.

 

[microbillgates]

The reason this thread is so quiet is because i'm doing a system image
17 minutes left

 

[microbillgates]

The image has saved

Any other software I could use for school.

 

[richc46]

Maybe software to help you find the laptop in case it is stolen... or do you have a hardware solution for that?

Open source anti-theft solution for your laptop, phone and tablet – Prey

In today's world something like this is essential.

 

[microbillgates]

I already got that before I did the image

 

[richc46]

Its been a long time since I have been to school and things have changed a lot. So why not look at this list of software recommened by the Forum and choose what you like. Any questions, just post. They are all free.

[microbillgates]

Well that means I'm ready for school
I have about a week of relaxation.

 

[microbillgates]

I need more suggestions anyone have any?

Edit: I also Re installed Windows 7

 

[Britton30]

Well, what do you plan to do at school that needs a computer?

 

[boohbah]

these days the school pupils get to upload their homework to the schools server ,so they never forget to hand in the homework, projects they are working on can be saved and acsessed from home, most subjects have the pupils researching using the internet, and most design classes (CDT) use auto cad etc
the pupils learn to use word for the purpose of essay writing and of course all the use of computers sets them up for the workplace that uses computers .
teachers add work to their homepages and the kids can get messages regarding classes ,timetables and more.
its not like when we were at school wiv our slates and chalk gary

I see Julian, I had an abacus and a stick to write in the dirt.
Here at Purdue University some profs are in class maybe four time a year. The beginning of semesters, mid-terms and finals.

With that in mind Adam maybe some remote desktop connection program like LogMeIn , TeamViewer, or GoToMyPC would be helpful.
