Title: Restoring computer from backup disks - Vista
Post by: kafka on September 11, 2007, 04:46:45 PM
After encountering insurmountable problems I was forced to reset my Lenovo to its factory settings. This was almost, but not quite, a complete reformat. A couple of months ago I made a 7 DVD backup of my computer which I thought I would be able to use to restore my pc to its ideal state (all my files, favourites, programs, etc.) Unfortunately I find that when I go into Windows restore and try to do the restoration from my backup disks I am told that I haven' done a backup! perhaps this is due to the fact that I have restored it to the factory settings, before I had done the backup.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could use my backup disks to restore everything to its June state?

Also: a minor question, I cannot remember how to avoid having to enter my password when I log in
