McAfee Image

An important step in preventing your PC from having lost or corrupted data
is to make a "snapshot" of the most critical areas on your hard drives. You can
use McAfee Image to make a snapshot of the most crucial information on your
drives. It saves information that you'll need if your hard disk ever fails. This
ensures that you can use Image's Restore option to restore the latest states of
your files and folders (or directories). Image stores its information in a file on
your hard drive. This file is stored using a special, patent-pending method that
allows the file to be recovered even if the hardware is severely damaged.

Creating an Image of your disks

Creating an image copy of your hard disks as a file (nbimage.dat) only takes
a moment. You should create a new image file any time you've rearranged
files or added many new files to your hard drive.
To create an image of your hard drives, select the Create a New Image Backup
option and click Finish. Image saves the nbimage.dat file on your system
hard drive, and displays a message letting you know the process is complete.
Click OK.
Be sure to create a Rescue disk using McAfee Utilities' Rescue Disk. Rescue
Disk places some Image information on your 3.5-inch disk.
