Delete Drive
|
Delete a selected drive in the list to make space available to
restore your recovery point.
When you click Delete Drive, the drive is only marked for
deletion. The actual deletion of the drive takes place after you
click Finish in the wizard.
|
|
Undo Delete
|
If you delete a drive and then change your mind, click
to return the drive to
the list.
|
|
Resize drive after recover (unallocated space only)
|
Select a disk (or volume label) that you want to resize after
the recovery point is restored. Then, select this option and
specify the new size in megabytes. The size must be greater than
the identified size of the disk that you selected in the list.
|
|
Partition type
|
Sets the partition type as follows:
-
Primary partition: Because hard disks are limited to four
primary partitions, select this type if the drive will have four or
less partitions.
-
Logical partition: Select this type if you need more than four
partitions. You can have up to three primary partitions, plus any
number of logical partitions, up to the maximum size of your hard
disk.
|
|
Check for file system errors after recovery
|
Checks the restored drive for errors after the recovery point is
restored.
|
|
Set drive active (for booting OS)
|
Makes the restored drive the active partition (for example, the
drive from which the computer starts).
You should select this option if you are restoring the drive on
which your operating system is installed.
|
|
Restore original disk signature
|
Restores the original, physical disk signature of the hard
drive.
Disk signatures are part of all Windows operating systems that
Norton Ghost supports. Disk signatures are required to use the hard
drive.
Select this option if either of the following
situations are true:
-
Your computer's drive letters are atypical (for example,
assigned letters other than C, D, E, and so forth).
-
You are restoring a recovery point to a new, empty hard
disk.
|
|
Restore master boot record
|
Restores the master boot record. The master boot record is
contained in the first sector of a physical hard disk. The master
boot record consists of a master boot program and a partition table
that describes the disk partitions. The master boot program
analyzes the partition table of the first physical hard disk to see
which primary partition is active. It then starts the boot program
from the boot sector of the active partition.
This option is recommended only for advanced users and is
available only if you restore a whole drive in the recovery
environment.
Select this option if any of the following
situations are true:
-
You are restoring a recovery point to a new, empty hard
disk.
-
You are restoring a recovery point to the original drive, but
the drive's partitions were modified since the recovery point was
created.
-
You suspect that a virus or some other problem has corrupted
your drive's master boot record.
