Information And Computer Tricks

Re-install the operating system might often be done by many computer users. When the computer it is already "lemot" because of the many things that are not important, could be re-install it.

Installing the operating system does not take a moment. Yah, siapkanlah within 30 minutes - 1 hour. The length depends on the installation of hardware (read: processors, memory, and hard disk) that is used.

Actually reinstall the operating system does not always have to run so long. With the cloning of hard to do, we need not be through the installation process is long. ita just need to copy the results of cloning and any PC operating bersistem again. So that the results of cloning as an operating system that is still fresh, do cloning shortly after you finish to install the operating system and drivers. Other programs should not be installed.

The core of the hard disk cloning is copying the entire hard drive contents to other media - to be another hard disk, CD, DVD, or external hard drive. With cloning, you will get the contents of the CD-R exactly the content of the hard disk.

We need to do some parangkat cloning. First is the software for cloning. One is that you can use Symantec's Norton Ghost. We also need a CD-writer, CD start-up, 2 and 1 floppy disk, 44 MB.

Save to CD
Since we will be doing the cloning of the operating system, the drive that contains the operating system that will dikloning - typically drive C. But, I can only operating system on another drive, for example, because there is more than one operating system in the PC.

On this tutorial, pcplus will make the cloning of the C drive that contains the Windows operating system with the size of the partition of 400 MB.

Without ba bi bu again, let's start.
1. Norton Ghost run by clicking the [Start]> [Program]> [Norton Ghost] [Norton Ghost].
2. You will see the view Ghost Basic. Select the first option, namely [Backup].
3. Click [Next].
4. Source select options in select drive C. Destination options in select [Recordable CD or DVD]. After that, click [Next]> [OK].
5. Press the [Next], [Next] again, [Next] again. Then click [Continue], click [Run Now], and the last click [OK].
Windows will restart and Norton Ghost also perform back-up. Now you have the CD, which is 1 image of your C drive. The contents of the CD is only 1 file that berekstensi GHO. You can not see the contents of the file without the assistance Ghost Explorer. With the help of Ghost explorer, you can view files on the file in the GHO.

I Start-up Disk
We need a floppy start-up that results GHO image file can be used when we want "to re-install" the operating system. Start-up disk is a two 1.44 MB floppy diskette. Diskette first we call "floppy A", while the second diskette we call the "B floppy disks."

Run Norton Ghost and click [Ghost Utilities]> [Norton Ghost boot wizard] [CD / DVD disk with the startup ghost] [Next] [Use PC-DOS] [Next] [Next] [Next] [Next]> [OK]. Enter a blank floppy disks to make CD / DVD start-up. Press [Start] to make a disk format, then press [Close].

Floppy disks will be the next start-up disk. When the confirmation for the second diskette appear, remove the floppy disk and insert a B. Press [Start] to do the format and press [Close]. Wait until the process is finished, and press [Finish] to end.

Now you have a startup floppy disk 2. This disk will be used for booting the first time. Please note that the second disk is related to one another. A diskette can not run without the disk B, so is vice versa. B floppy disks can not be run without the floppy A.

"Install"
Why install it be in quotes? That's because we do not install the operating system. But, just copy the operating system that we had previously installed.

Step by step this is done when we want to re-invigorate the operating system. We are doing is the cloning of the CD to the hard disk.

In the BIOS, so Arrange boot from the floppy diskette is done. Insert a floppy in the floppy drive. Follow the instructions on the screen, if you are inserting floppy B, then enter the diskette B. You are prompted to insert a diskette, and press [Enter], and the last return you are requested to enter the disk B.
Now you have entered Norton Ghost.

To perform cloning from a CD to the hard disk, select [Local]> [Partition] [from image]. Navigate to the CD-ROM containing the GHO file, and press [Open]. In the "Select source partition from image file", click [OK]. Then in the "Select local destination drive by clicking on the drive number", click [OK]. Select the drive that will dikloning, select drive C, press [OK] and press [Yes].

Cloning will run until reaching 100 percent. Press [Reset computer] to restart. Remove the disk from the floppy drive and the BIOS Arrange to take your first booting from the hard disk.
