im looking for a good program where i can image the whole hard drive of my arcade machines
so when it does go down i got a backup image i can reload

can anyone tell me of a easy program to do imaging with
i got 4 arcade machines and they both run of windows
so i like to do a image and keep them on the same drive


cheers

well for normal HD Image i use Ghost but for the arcade i tried it sometimes ghost does not do proper job which i dono why

anyway, i tried this : Acronis® True Image
works perfect for ur case,

remember after making HD Image, try it after, the cloned one to make sure all OK

also, some arcade machines restrict the appz inside with the HD Vol SN. which can be edited with other tools

thats all

dd

use a program that 'bit copies' with no regard for the underlying structure of the drive or allocation tables.

Well you can try, there is a 1 in 10 chance it will do the job without crashing.

I agree with Neuron, either DDrescue or another called hddup (hdd duplicate) the latter is not free though.

thanks for the information guys

i used both programs before

was seeing if any other good ones out there in the world wide web


cheers

You can try DMDE.
