i also discovered that Windows will create a system image disk set for you.
Do you have a reference for that, so that I can find the option? Maybe I did something of the sort, to CD, but it was terribly slow and I was not happy. So I don't know if it is the same thing as you did. (I have W 7).
Reinstalling all the stuff you add to Windows after install can be a royal pain in the posterior
Indeed. People that say that Windows is easy to install most likely have not done many bare bones installs. What they do is restore manufacturer images.
but if the image works as advertised that shouldn't be necessary. I then shut off the machine until the new hard drive arrived.
