Restoring from a backup image using the boot application
Once a backup image exist, you can use it to restore the entire content of the hard disk in the event of a failure. The software used is Acronis True Image. You must use this restore functionality if you are unable to start the Processor Unit from the C-disk.
Prerequisites
The following items are required:
•  Computer mouse
•  Computer keyboard
•  USB flash drive (Bootable)
•  Optionally: USB flash drive (with backup image)
•  Optionally: USB hard disk (with backup image)
To restore you need access to the backup files. We recommend that you use the backup you made after the system installation was completed.
You need the bootable USB flash drive provided with the SU90 system. You can also use any commercial USB flash drive. It must be formatted as a bootable device by the Acronis True Image program.
Context

Note
If you restore your Processor Unit from a generic image, you must change the Windows license and then activate it before you can use the SU90. You must also reinstall the SU90 system software. We recommend that you use the backup you made after the system installation was completed.
