I have a doubt concerning how to create a system image for my PC.
I have already tried the Windows 7 "Create a system image" built in program, but it seems to suffer with Double Layer DVDs. It keeps asking to insert a > 1 Gb media to be formatted.
I have also searched ImgBurn forums and guides trying to find a procedure, but so far I have found procedures to create images of a CD/DVD into the PC hard drives.
Searching / digging out the web, I found this procedure:
1. Install ImgBurn.
2. From Ez-Mode Picker, choose Create image file from file/folders.
3. Click on File > Browse for a source folder ...
4. From Computer, choose Local Disc (C:) - that is where I have Windows and all aplications installed.
5. Click on Select Folder
6. Then, click on Source dialog box, and add C:
7. Then, on Destination, click on browse for a file (at the right of Destination dialog box), and pick the media player/recorder.
But, when I do this, the Destination choice box shows C:\Users\JCP\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Burn\0.0x0\Image 1.iso, as the destination file.
Is this a sort of Temporary storage location prior to copying to DVD / CD? If so, what would be the next steps?
If not, what is the correct procedure to create the system image (that contains Windows and all installed programs with their set up / configurations)?
Cheers,
Jose Pinho.
