Deric,
"If it asks you to insert the DVD to run a repair Windows will quickly search for the boot files on the DVD and install them, then it will work after a reboot but you may have to do it twice.This will only work though if the DVD is a full retail version."
My version is Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade so presumably this will not work?
I looked on another machine on which I had installed Windows 7 and this does not have a SRP presumably because I installed it over XP…
I installed Windows 7 on this machine from the upgrade DVD without having XP present so maybe that is why it has got a SRP?
If I do the "Copy my hard drive" as you suggest and then use the SRD to restore my backup to that drive will it work?
I'm not actually too worried about the error messages because they were only caused when I was trying to backup the drive I am using at the moment but now I am proposing to use another hard drive I don't think this is any longer necessary.
Your suggestion that I should, "Only have the one drive connected at any time so you don't get confused," is well taken. When I was messing about with Ghost 15 I installed some things on the wrong drive!
