Restoring an Acronis Image

One good reason to remove any drive that is unrelated to the restore is to avoid the horror story you hear too often where people restore to the wrong drive, wiping out there existing data.

All the more reason to keep the drive unplugged so Windows doesn't decide to use it while sorting itself out on a first boot attempt. The 100MB system partition isn't mandatory, it's just a strictly enforced highly recommended option.

Okay - thanks for input - will unplug just in case! More work for Mum lol

I've made a Bootable Acronis Rescue Media....
