I have installed Drive Image 2002 on my Windows 98 SE system. I have made an image on my C drive on another partition. How can I copy the image back to its original location after I format my hard disk so that the main Drive Image 2002 is also gone.

1) In such a scenario of hard disk format, do I have to make a boot up floppy to copy the image back to C drive. If yes, how can that boot up floppy made in Drive Image 2002.

2) Is it possible to copy the image from another partition without boot up from floppy in case of format of the C drive.

Example
Partition 1 = C
Partition 2 = D

You have used DriveImage to copy drive C and saved the Image to drive D.

You can now use the DriveImage tool from within Windows to overwrite drive C with the image from drive D.

DriveImage will make the appropriate procedures and then reboot and perform the changes.
You do not need to format the drive as the image will simply overwrite the drive with the image.

If you want to use the DriveImage program from DOS then make sure to create the Rescue Disks from within the program.




2) Is it possible to copy the image from another partition without boot up from floppy in case of format of the C drive.The image is a compressed file. Copying the file will only copy the compressed file.

If you want to use the DriveImage program from DOS then make sure to create the Rescue Disks from within the program.
