Disaster Recovery Essential Tool

Often (very often) I'll get a PC in that will not boot. It has to be rebuilt, completely. Now that's a time consuming chore, and one which becomes boring after only a few repetitions.
So whats to do ? Ghost it ? Hmmm maybe not, had a few that just do not recover correctly, and time consuming too.....
So an alternative "ghosty" is required....... step in MACRIUM REFLECT. This FREE application makes a direct copy of the "build" onto a separate partition, which can be retrieved if neccessary i.e. if the build refuses to boot at a later stage. Compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. Whats more, the recovery CD which is used to retrieve the Macrium reflect image, is a Linux boot disk. So no problems there, just boot up and run the recovery process. Reliable and pretty fast as well. http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.asp
