+A tip from a user:
+An effective way to restore a Windows backup for
+those who do not purchase the bare metal restore
+capability is to install Windows on a different
+hard drive and restore the backup.  Then run the
+recovery CD and run
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+diskpart
+   select disk 0
+   select part 1
+   active
+   exit

+bootrec /rebuldbcd
