CREATING AND REINSTALLING A GHOST
OF YOUR SYSTEM
The aim of this procedure is to describe how to create a ghost image of your
system and how to restore your system with an existing image.
Note
All delivering systems have a R: RESTORE partition located on the
system disk. This allows you to have an image file of the C: partition,
and easily restore the complete XP operating system and XFile Software
to the factory default state at any time.
