Hi all. I made a disk image of my c: and d: drive with Acronis True Image and Windows Vista as my OS. Can I restore those images if I upgrade the OS to Windows 7?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

In a nutshell NO..
the disk imagine has the OS on it.. when you restore the imagine.. you will overwrite your Windows 7... with
Windows Vista. -
if you read the 1st post... he backed up all his data with a disk image program... upgraded to windows 7 and then wants to restore his programs and data from the disk imagine..
that will only erase his windows 7 (that he just upgraded) back to windows vista..
i dont think thats what he wants -
You cannot install it on a different computer with the same OS unless, it is the same MB and peripherals.
