Hi,
I know this question has been asked many times earlier too but I couldn't find an answer to my query.
I have a laptop with 160 Gb HDD. I have windows xp and Oracle apps installed on it. I want to make an image of this system so that I dont' have to install it again and again. Since it is a 160 Gb partition image creation in DVD's is not possible. However I have a USB drive with 320 GB capacity and I would like to use it as a backup media.
I want the best software to do this even if it is a paid version. The doubts that I have are.. if the image is in USB drive, how would I be able to restore the system.. (will it be detectable at the time of boot)?
I have heard about norton ghost but never used it.... Just wanted the techies here to guide me through the steps I need to follow. I can arrange norton ghost from office, but if there are any other better softwares please suggest.
