Chapter 6. Restoring the backup data
6.1 Restore under Windows or boot from CD?
As mentioned above (see
several ways. We recommend that you first try to restore data running Apricorn EZ Gig II
under Windows, because this method provides more functionality. Boot from the bootable
media only if Windows does not load.
The boot CD from which you loaded the program does not keep you from using other CDs
with backups. Apricorn EZ Gig II is loaded entirely into RAM, so you can remove the bootable
CD to insert the archive disk.
Be careful! Disk letters in standalone Apricorn EZ Gig II might sometimes differ from the way
Windows identifies drives. For example, the D: drive identified in the standalone Apricorn EZ
Gig II might correspond to the E: drive in Windows.
If a backup image is located on bootable media, you might have a choice of using Apricorn
One-Click Restore. This operation always restores the entire physical disk. Therefore, if your
disk consists of several partitions, all of them must be included in the image. Any partitions
that are missing from the image will be lost. Please make sure that the image contains all
disk data or you do not need the partitions that are not imaged before using Apricorn One-
Click Restore.
6.1.1 Network settings in rescue mode
When booted from removable media, Apricorn EZ Gig II may not detect the network. Such
might be the case if there is no DHCP server in your network or your computer address was
not identified automatically for some reason.
To enable connection, specify network settings manually in the window, available at Tools -
> Options -> Network adapters.
