added some of my own Louches Lo Lhls Lechnlque.
My small llLLle conLrlbuLlon ls Lhe procedure for backlng up a sysLem's orlglnal operaLlng sysLem lnsLallaLlon,
such as Wlndows 7, and belng able Lo Lransfer LhaL operaLlng sysLem onLo a parLlLlon nexL Lo CS x and

1hls verslon of Lhe Wlndows 7 Culde requlred a loL of my aLLenLlon and almosL a compleLe rewrlLe. 1here ls a

1here are Lhree procedures for backlng up / resLorlng a Wlndows 7:
1) 8acklng up Lhe uvx drlve whlle lnsLalled ln a deskLop machlne
2) 8acklng up Lhe uvx drlve wlLh uslng a norLon ChosL S8u (SymanLec 8ecovery ulsc)

?ou sLarL wlLh a wlped clean n1lS parLlLlon and lnsLall Wlndows 7 from an lnsLallaLlon dlsc. WlLh Lhls meLhod,

Well, l dld flnally geL around Lo Lrylng Lhls ouL and qulLe slmply - lL lsn'L LhaL slmple. 1hls approach acLually

8tooqbt to os by Csly!

1here was a long Lroubllng lssue where golng from CS x lnLo Wlndows 7 or vlce versa would resulL ln Lhe clock
belng very wrong. ?ou many noL have Wlndows 7 lnsLalled aL Lhls polnL, and lf Lhls ls Lhe case, now you know
you can come back here for how Lo flx Lhls. 1hankfully, because Csly researched Lhls lssue, he was able solve

Csly explalned LhaL CS x sLores Llme as u1C, where Wlndows does noL. So Lhe correcLlon ls made Lo Wlndows

lor Wlnows 7, you need Lo add or seL Lhe followlng reglsLry key:

[PkL?_LCCAL_MACPlnL\S?S1LM\CurrenLConLrolSeL\ConLrol\1lmeZonelnformaLlon]
