How to create a Disaster Recovery disk?


Recommended Posts

I have a question that is somewhat similar to this one

.

A Retrospect Express version 5.6 for Windows CD was bundled with the hard drive I just bought. I installed the program on a computer running Windows XP for the home, and followed the instructions to create a bootable disaster recovery CD.

- The process appeared to complete successfully. However, when I try to boot from the CD, I get an error message indicating that it is not bootable.

- There is only one file on the resulting CD - "Restore HPNOTEBOOK.iso"...leading me to think that the error message is correct.

- The BIOS on the PC HAVE been set to "Boot from CD ROM".

 

1) SHOULD I be able to create a bootable CD using version 5.6 for Windows?

2) Are there any common reasons for a Disaster Recovery CD to be created, but not bootable?
