Re: Backup--a different approach

I have never seen a System Reserved Partition with Windows 7. However I
always create my disk partitions first, then install windows. As the
link explains, if you want to avoid the SRP this is a simple solution.

Read this to know your way around this topic:

And I know you may still need to image the System Reserved partition as
well (which is about 100 M. in size, as the first partition), if there
is one. I have computers that have this, and ones that don't.
Not entirely sure how that came about. I never quite learned (or
remembered) how to avoid making one of these when installing Windows.
That's the way I would prefer it -- not having that extra partition to
deal with. But once it's there, I guess you are just stuck with it.

Yes, you'd better leave it as is. At least do not manipulate these
things without a good utility like EasyBCD (http://neosmart.net/EasyBCD/).
