Customize Rapid Restore?

#1 Post by dclee012 » Mon May 03, 2004 3:59 pm

(This isn't really a "windows" question, but I don't know where else to put it.)

I'm not sure how to go about customizing rapid restore. What I mean is, I have reformated WinXP and installed Win2K, so now I want to erase the factory-installed partition (WinXP) and backup my Win2K on the hidden partition (instead of the default XP)..

I was toying with it, but accidentally restored XP over my Win2K.. :cry:

Get DriveImage, Ghost, or another imaging utility.

You could also upgrade to Rapid Restore Ultra but I personally have had very bad experiences with Rapid Restore so I wouldn't recommend it. YMMV.

I just installed Rapid Restore Ultra 4.0 and bought a second hdd for backups. Would appreciate your describing any bad experiences you've had. Thank you.
