  • How to backup Windows from a MBR disk and restore it to an EFI booting GPT disk.

    This guide takes you set-by-step backing up Windows 8.1, creating the AISBackup bootable restore CD or bootable USB flash drive and then restoring Windows to a 4 terabyte disk drive. In order to use the full 4TB the disk must be formatted using GPT instead of MBR and in this example we make the disk (U)EFI bootable.

    Please note that EFI booting is only possible on 64-bit versions of Windows. This procedure will not work for 64-bit Windows XP or 64-bit Windows Server 2003. Indeed, Windows XP cannot access GPT disks in any case.
