Instructions

Here are step-by-step instructions for using the AISBackup Restore CD to restore a copy of Windows to new unformatted disks. The backup in fact contains a dual boot system of Windows 2000 and Windows Vista Business, and the restore process will restore both of these operating systems to two new disk partitions. This type of restore is likely to be more complex than an average disaster recovery restore, but demonstrates the restore features of AISBackup.

Once the PC has booted the AISBackup Restore CD may be removed from the drive to enable restore backup's from CD or DVD media.

To use the AISBackup Restore CD set your PC to boot from CD and re-boot, press a key when asked or the PC will revert to booting your regular Windows. AISBackup will start automatically and display an Options dialogue from where you may select an appropriate option.

In this example the PC contains a new unformatted disk, so click Restore from a backup to proceed. If you wish to make alterations to the disk configuration prior to restore, including formatting a disk partition, choose Disk Maintenance.

If the PC requires additional drivers to activate certain hardware, for example SATA or SCSI disk drivers or Network drivers choose the Load a device driver option and choose the appropriate INF file from your hardware manufacturer’s set-up CD.
