I had a dreaded hard drive crash and I need to rebuilt my main drive from a saved Ghost image.
I am running Win 7 32 Professional 32 bit. I have an image saved on an external drive. There are 2 files there - drive C and system reserved.
When I boot from the recovery disk and select the images to restore it doesn't seem to allow me to select both files. I can restore the Drive C file with is about 80 GB, but then the restore terminates at the very end with an strange error "reached end of something". When I reboot I get the error "bootmgr is missing." I am assuming that this is because I haven't also restored the 2nd Ghost file.
So, my questons are:
1 - Should I be restoring both files? If so, why is it saying "invalid" when I select the system reserved file? Do I do them both at the same time? What options should I select for each file? Is there are guide for this?
2 - Should I just move forward and repair the boot sector with my Win 7 disc and that will recover my system?
3 - Something else I should be doing?
Thanks.
