im using vista ultimate x64. i have 3 hard drives - an 80gb, a 100gb, and a 500gb. i decided to try out dynamic drives today, and ended up rendering my system drive (the 100gb one) unbootable. "no problem", i thought, "i'll just install vista again on the 80gb hard drive, make a backup of the one that doesnt work, convert the 100gb drive back to basic, and restore the image." i have now converted it back to basic, only to find that i can't restore the backup that i made. i used a program caleld r-drive, and it made a .arc file which is on the 500gb dynamic disk. the program can mount the drive and i can see all the contents, but when i try to do a real restore i get a write error. can i somehow either restore the whole backup or rescue all my programs by putting them in this second vista installation (which is on the 80gb basic partition)?
