The default state of this check
box is unchecked because the
drive may contain content you
do not want erased. Check this
box only if you want to make
the External Storage Device
bootable (Strongly
recommended. A bootable
backup is necessary to restore
a backup image to a new or
replacement hard drive in the
event of a primary hard drive
failure).
4. Click Next>
The Confirm screen appears.
CAUTION: The following
step starts the process of
creating the backup. When
you start the process, your
system automatically
reboots into the Windows
Recovery Environment to
create the backup. When
the process is complete,
your system automatically
reboots the Windows
operating system, after
which you may resume
your normal activities. To
avoid potential data loss,
close any open files and applications before proceeding to the next
step.
5. Click Start.
You will be logged off and your system will reboot into the Windows Recovery
Environment (Windows Vista only).
A window appears displaying a progress bar as the restore operation
completes. When backup creation is complete, your system automatically
reboots.
