创造好 您的计算机系统备份 当他们在工作和稳定状态时，介入不仅支持所有您的数据，而且支持窗口和所有系统文件。当一个硬盘碰撞时或窗口操作系统变得腐败，不仅能迅速装载您的数据是更好的，而且用所有您的用户设置装载整个操作系统，按书签，安装的司机，安装的应用和更。

一个好方式安排两件事照料立即将生成您的硬盘的图象。通过生成图象，您的整个系统状态，包括OS和数据文件，被夺取象快照，并且可以任何时候被再装。因为您在系统，不手工必须复制数据从各种各样的地点它是最佳的方式保护您的数据并且最容易。

DriveImage XML 是您能使用创造逻辑驱动器和窗口分开图象和备份的一个完全地自由数据补救节目。这这个节目两三种主要功能：

迅速备用逻辑驱动器和窗口分开对没有必须的图像文件重新开始窗口(您能保持登录)
容易地从图象浏览，观看或者提取文件
恢复图象对同一驱动或对不同的驱动
复制数据直接地从驱动到驱动
预定自动备份和图象创作与任务调度程序

好的事关于DriveImage XML是它使用微软的容量阴影服务(VSS)，手段您能 生成硬盘的热的图象 那是在使用中。它支持Windows XP，窗口媒介集中和窗口服务器2003年。另一个好特点是图象在XML文件被存放，手段您可能处理他们在第三者工具，不仅DriveImage XML。

生成您的硬盘的一个备用图象

一旦您有它安装，开始并且点击备份按左手边菜单开始。选择您想要备份然后点击的驱动其次.

然后开始并且选择您为您的备份会想要的不同的选择。 原始方式 意味着备份将是您的驱动的确切大小，因为自由或空的空间也支持。您能留给此未经检查为多数目的。压缩意味着文件在大小将减少，但需要很长时间生成图象。您能留给一切在缺省设置。

并且，开始并且选择一个地点为图像文件。 Make sure you put the image on a drive other than the one you are backing up. So if you’re backing up the C drive, put the image on the D drive or on an external drive.

Now your image file will be created depending on the speed of your computer. Once completed, you’ll get two files, an XML file, which is a list of all of the files and a .dat file, which holds all of the actual data.

Restore a backup hard drive image

You can then use the image file to restore individual files or to perform a complete restore of the system to the same hard drive or to a different partition. The one thing to remember though when restoring an image is that the partition you are restoring to needs to be of the same size or larger. You cannot restore to a smaller partition size than the original.

When you restore, you cannot restore to the same drive you’re currently running Windows on. So you’ll have to use another disk as a secondary disk and then restore the image to that disk. Once restored, you can plug that disk back into the computer that crashed. You’ll basically need another computer running the DriveImage XML software working in order to restore the data.

Also, DriveImage XML does not perform incremental backups after the first backup image, so you’ll either have to have a lot of space or you will have to delete older ones.

Overall, it’s an easy way to “ghost” your hard drive and not have to pay anything! The software works very well and has a simple to use and attractive interface. Enjoy! Source via LifeHacker

This is a nice way to backup hdd. I remember when I was studying computers people used to talk about ghost installation I believe this will allow you to do just that. I personally backup my data every week on my 500 Gig monster I purchased to backup data.

Awesome tool. I’m okay with the backup part but the restoration part? Eerie.

Keith - You’re exactly right, it’s basically a free version of Ghost. It works really well.

Madhur - Yeah it’s so much better than copying data back and forth! Much faster.

Syahid - Good question. If you want to restore, you need to have another computer with the software installed. Basically, if your computer crashed, get a new drive, plug it into a secondary computer and tell the program to restore to that disk. Then take the disk out and put it back into the original computer. It’s a little tricky, but will work.
