Hi
I have a very technical question about my acer 5630 i gig dual core
the original factory installed os is xp media center about 4 yrs ago & still has the original recovery image in the hidden partition. so that i can always restore back if i need to.
i have about 1 yr ago installed a genuin retail windows 7 ultimate and activated successfully and have all the updates
i have also got it set up the way i want it and have done a system image after taking off a lot of stuff that acer or microsoft have added into the install
WHAT i would like to find out is :-
is it possible to replace my windows xp recovery image on the hidden drive with my windows 7 ultimate image and get it to recover using acer recovery management/f10
I think im right in saying that the acer recovery management would not reconise the ultimate image if i just simply removed the xp image and replaced it with the ultimate image Wondered if we ( renamed it the same as xp image )
So does anyone know if someone could re write info to get recovery to recover from the ultimate image
Im just being fussy because i know that i can use recovery disk to recover my image i just want to try to put it into the recovery option management because i may want to sell my laptop
many thanks to all who reads this
