Tim, I will save your share, but, no need! I think I turned IT ON. I will respond again in 48hrs or so :) I will now go fix my other 2 questionable PCs. The collective rulez!

Re: [H] Question?
Al, OK under your set of circumstanes, I agree with your rational. I treat disk failure as just that, regardless of what I was doing when a disk fails. I have had several disk failures, but, never during a backup. Yes, I do agree that this is possible. In this situation, I would confirm the disk failure, replace the drive, qualify (format), and attempt to do a restore of my past month's backup. At worst I've lost 30 days of 'stuff.' I do not do weekly incrementals due to the time involved. I am still learning Win7pro and Win8.1pro. I do hope that System Restore carried forward from XP. I do depend on this feature.

The only backups I've ever done is to clone the entire drive with something like PartedMagic. When you use Win 7 backup, and, say have a drive failure, will it restore in one step? Or does one need to re-install the OS and then apply the backup? Thx, Al

If you make a restore dis (USB or CD/DVD) you can restore the backup from there.

The Win7 backup has a image recovery system that doesn't require an OS install, I believe. T
