Disk Image
Simple explanation if someone could, please.

Suppose I have a 500gb drive partitioned C, D and E, and D contains a winXP installation while E has win7 (NB Not my setup....) - a few Q's:

Can I create a disk image that I can restore to the drive IF I cannot boot either into Xp or Win7?

If I write this image to an external USB drive, can that be accessed for the restore by either the XP or Win7 install disk? (I also have a Hiren's MiniXP USB boot available.)

Would I reformat the 500gb drive before restoring the image?

Any other ways of doing it?
