  • Doing a restore from a backup made to an external harddrive

    I recently purchased a P45OC notebook from Tiger Direct. What has followed has been insane.
    It initially worked, so I installed MS Office, Chrome and an Anti-Virus. It then developed hardware problems. Eventually I got it replaced. Fine. I wanted to restore from the backup I made but I have found it to be impossible... I am no amateur. 25 years ago I was working at XXCAL test labs and have worked with PCs ever since.
    Seemingly there is no way to use Restore from the Control Panel.
    Using the Recovery disk I made caused it to go through some ASUS internal restore process. I'm not sure it worked, but in any case I still cannot recover from the Win 7 Backup I made.
    Does anyone know how to force this to use the Backup that was made from it?
    Thanks, Mike
Working...
