[JEHERETIC]

[oOADROo]

@JEHERETIC Don't know, haven't tried it

[JEHERETIC]

@oOADROo I think it ccan be done, just load drivers before restore system image

[Ibiwild]

[MrBallerh]

oh ok thankss!! :)

[MrBallerh]

so u restored windows 7 back onto an external hard drive? and i just want to no how to do this on the hard drive of the computer??!?!?

[oOADROo]

@MrBallerh You make a partition, install windows, then use that partition to back W7 on .

[MrBallerh]

no im just asking for like how u put windows 7 on top of windows xp like what did u do, did u put a partition for windows 7 before putting it back or...?

[oOADROo]

@MrBallerh I didn't create a partition, i used a separate hard disk which the Windows 7 was backed up. You can create a partition and then make a W7 image on that but it takes a long time when you want to restore W7

[MrBallerh]

@o0ADROo do i have to make a partition for the windows 7 to go on or will it do its self?

[oOADROo]

@MrBallerh are you trying to install Windows7on a hard drive?

if i have my backup many dvds then how to restore?.....pls help

[MrQarsim]

Great video, hope you don't mind me saying this but how your video started off would be a little confusing for the none-techy people. You didn't explain that you were restoring your system from an image that you created.

Other then that, yup straight up slick video

[jshaw2009]

i plan on getting a new hard drive soon, so if i have upgraded to windows 7 ultimate from basic this will still work? and how would i go about doing it from a brand new drive?

[oOADROo]

@jshaw2009 I don't thing Windows 7 basic has backup and restore 

[Marychen91207]

Farstone@DriveClone offers backup & recovery

[YouLR7]

Straight to the point; just the way I like it. Thank You !!! Amazing Tutorial !!!

[oOADROo]

@YouLR7 Thanks ;-)

[cjant101]

Mate i will subscribe you tell me i want to unistall or restore from windows 7 to my xp please

[DrShortizzle]

Can you change the size of the partitions somewhere in this process? Can you make the partition of the main system files and windows smaller? (C: Drive)

[oOADROo]

@DrShortizzle Don't know but you can make a partition install windows then use that partition for backing your windows

[damaoker]

i have made windows image backup now i want to delete it but i cant becouse some other program is using it ... HELP :/

[oOADROo]

@damaoker Run windows in safe mode then try to delete it

[AcSpic]

Hi I Upgraded to Windows 7 through the student promotion. I never got a CD i just downloaded the upgrade and installed it on my computer and i got windows 7. Now I would like to delete everything on my computer basically restore it to factory settings with windows 7. I have backed up all my files and personal stuff on an external hard drive. How do i go about restoring my computer without having a windows 7 cd ??

[knumberd]

i just bought my hp pavillion pc about 3 weeks ago and it didnt come with a cd. i heard that they dont issue cd'z anymore in order to cut down on piracy

[knumberd]

what cd r u talkin about?????????????????????? in your part 1 vid you never mentioned anything about a cd. i just backed it up on my external hard drive. so now your tellin me i need a cd?

[oOADROo]

@knumberd windows 7 CD 0:13

[Hugajohan]

but if it was a virtual pc how to do that i have xp mode but not windows 7 virtual plz say

[Hugajohan]

how did you record when you log off your pc

[dotrunghieu]

Will it backup my drivers?

[superpakk]

will this method work if im planning on upgrading to a new internal hdd?

[mundapakistani]

Does the format process will also delete the other partitions or it will simply reformat the system drive.?

[JoAlRe]

Anybody know's what's name of recorder?

[madmark0]

ure joking right... if u dnt no that u really no but its in the bios threres a cool sight called "Google" that noes much things such as what your asking

[J2Kofficial4x4]

[ThingsontheWeb]

I watch the vid for hearing " When I rock the crowd, I rock the crowd well.

Personal Computers FTW

I hate Gateway  :P

[oOADROo]

i havent seen the vid, gona have to check it out

[lev8080]

this is a life savior feature , and its much better than 3rd p apps out there ! you never know when ur hdd will die on you !

good vid mate , keep-em-coming !

[oOADROo]

I totally agree. The good thing is.. its in all versions of windows 7 including the basic version ;D

[ibpointless2]

Does Windows 7 have it where it does incremental backups or do you have to tell it to back up every time.

[oOADROo]

No but you do have restore points, which its kind of the same but without needing a HDD

[ibpointless2]

I kind of have a stupid question :)

what do you do when your main hard drive with all the restore points and back ups fails or gets corrupted or you want to move to a bigger hard drive?

Also how much space does this back up thing take up on your main hard drive?

Great video 5 stars :)

[oOADROo]

Good Question. I have 1.5T hard disk which is partitioned. I have over 400GB of data in 1 partition and the other is my image of the OS. If I get a nasty spyware on my PC ill just do a Restore point if that fails I back up my downloads onto a spear HD and use my partition to restore my OS and programs.

[blacksteel25]

Yeah didn't know premium didn't have backup feature, which it should by default. It's not a big deal, can use several free backup software.

[oOADROo]

It should had it by default like you said but it hasnt ;( which is a shame. I hate using Norton and some others windows is much easy and simple

[ThingsontheWeb]

Where did you hear that? All versions have backup and restore ... you will need Pro or Ult to back up to network drives. All versions will allow you to backup to other USB/DVD or internal drives.

[oOADROo]

Ill check it out. I know windows vista hasnt got it but I assume 7 will be the same , but ill check it out before I make any changes to this video

[ThingsontheWeb]

Yeah they changed it for Win7 ... bye bye Ghost

[oOADROo]

i hate ghost, it pisses me off.

[ThingsontheWeb]

It's Norton ... lol ... what do you expect ... do you remember Norton Utilities? Norton should have sold a book on how to re-install the OS, then write these types of applications.

lol

[oOADROo]

HAHAH!! That was a misery for a lot of people including me. I didnt know my machines were fucking up because of Norton utilities, I only found out till I stopped using it :D and that Defrag was a joke XD it use to speed up the PC every time I used it but then again it was Norton that made it slow in the first place XD.

[douguk47]

Norton dont get me started on that. Seriously one day I am going to find the half wit that came up with that shit and tear him a new asshole. OOh yeah Mr O Thats another 5 stars

[oOADROo]

Hahah!! Norton is a pile of shit

[blacksteel25]

You are correct Things, Backup and Restore is limited for Premium only, for backup to a Network Drive, which I think it should be added anyway to Premium. Backup and Restore are in all Win 7 editions.

[ThingsontheWeb]

Premium should have it too ... I agree because this will be the version they will sell the most to the public.
