Restoring Method | Restoring an HD Backup


Restore an HD Backup

You can restore data backed up with the HD Backup function using the BSREST16.EXE restore program. Its default location is [c:\Program Files\B's Recorder GOLD5\BSREST].




Restoring Method

Choose one of the following methods to restore an HD backup.
  1. Restore from a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive using a bootable CD/DVD. You must have selected [Create from standard bootable disk image] in the backup options, or selected [Create from bootable disk] and created a bootable floppy disk which contains BSREST16.EXE.
  2. Boot the system from a bootable floppy disk (which contains BSREST16.EXE) and restore. You must create a bootable floppy disk, by enabling the [Copy the restore program] option in the [Options] tab of the Options window and clicking [Create Bootable Disk]. You may also copy BSREST16.EXE onto a bootable floppy disk creating using the [Add/Remove Programs] window on Windows 9x.




Restoring an HD Backup

1.

Insert the first backup disc into the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive or, insert the bootable disk into the floppy disk drive, and boot the system.

2. If you specified a password, you will be asked to input it when the system boots. Input the password, then press [Enter].
 






3.

If you are restoring a partition, input the number corresponding to where the backed up data is to be restored, then press [Enter]. If you are restoring a FAT32 partition or drive, be sure not to select the wrong location to restore, because the contents can be restored to a partition/drive with a capacity larger than that of the backed up data.

Note
The following prompt appears when the location to restore is active. Make sure it is the correct location before inputting [y].

Warning! Selected partition is active partition.
Do you overwrite this partition? [y/n]:
