This means that the clone should work properly if you were to replace the original disk on the same machine, or if you were to use the clone on another machine with a similar hardware configuration.
If you select "to replace a disk on this machine" (clone with bootable OS), the clone will be created with the necessary drivers and settings for your current hardware configuration.Let me try to answer your questions regarding the two cloning modes: Question Thumbnail images slowly load or missing thumbnails that won't load at all until I refresh a few times.It's great that you are taking steps to back up your boot drive using Acronis True Image. Question Yahoo Email: I can only embed one image in an Email. It's a good idea to do this copy in Safe Mode to minimize the chances of the virus hopping over to your new drive. You can get an external USB or eSata enclosure for your old drive or set it up as a secondary internal one. Most viruses don't live in those places, they like to hide in user settings files or in the Windows directory. My suggestion would be to spend a few dollars and get a new hard drive, install new Windows on that, and copy the Desktop, My Documents and Favorites from your profule on the old drive. If you can't find any way of cleaning out the virus (check the sticky post on these forums), then you need to do a clean setup of Windows, which is not called a "clone". You are correct, if you clone the drive now, you will also take the virus with you. Well, if i can explain a bit more, It started when I got a virus and my friend suggested I do a clone, format HDD then reinstall.ġ) I cant figure out how that works when surely it would take virus too!?Ģ) when I was researching this, I came across that I may have to reinstall all drivers and maybe even office, work etc.
