Turn Vista Home Premium Into Ultimate – (Part 1) Disk Imaging
How to Geek
One of the features in Vista Ultimate is Complete PC Backup and Restore. This allows for easier system backup of your hard disk, essentially making a clone or image of the current state of the hard drive. This feature is available in Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate versions of Vista.
Complete PC Backup and Restore should not be confused with Automatic Backup which only backup up files and settings. Auto backup is available on all versions of Vista except for Home Basic.
Today we will look at one option to create an image of a hard drive with Vista Home Premium using the free utility DriveImage XML. **These Screenshots were taken on an XP machine … the application works the same for both Vista and XP**
DriveImage XML allows you to back up files and complete disk images into an XML file which you can use to restore the copy later.
The application is extremely easy to use. Just follow through the steps with the Drive Backup Wizard.
