Windows 7 How to Restore Windows Vista Backup on Windows 7

What process did you use to make the backup disk? When you say "it won't run", do you mean you cannot read the disc in Windows 7?

Help please!

Hi to everyone, I am new on here and hoping there is someone that could help with a problem I have pleeeaaase!

I have removed Windows Vista from my laptop and installed Windows 7, prior to removing Vista I did a backup disc, it is this disc that I cannot get on to Windows 7, please can anyone give me advice. I am not a 'Computer Wizard' so as simple as poss please.

Hi Saltglass

Hi Saltglass
Thanks for reply.
I am very 'green' at this I'm afraid. What I did was put a disc in and just did a back up disc.
No, I cannot open it.
Have I done the back up disc incorrectly.....would'nt surprise me!!!!

Three identical topics is not the best way to get help...

That aside, it looks like you made the backup using Norton360 so you will need to use that program to be able to read the backup. I assume you have already tried this?

I have just made a suggestion in your similar thread which you posted earlier.

Please do not make multiple requests for help on the same topic as this only adds to confusion and doesn't get your answer any quicker.
Thankyou

Thanks to each and everyone that answered my 'distress call'. I am going off to try and rescue my backup, will let you know outcome...........if I don't ruin my comp...lol.

Sorry for sending two identical messages, I am still trying to find my way round this site.......won't happen again....I hope.
Thanks again.
