UTILITIES MS-7693 Chapter 2 ▶ HDD Backup Hard disk storage backups and restoring is one of the most common and important tasks. Use this utility to create an image of your HDD partitions and re-load them when necessary. Important The HDD Backup can't back up (/restore) image to (/from) a partition where itself was installed, so it's strongly recommended to divide HDD into 2 partitions at least (1st for OS; 2nd for data). For HDD with single partition only, the requirements for HDD Backup are: 1. An additional partition from another HDD (ex. USB HDD) for HDD Backup to back up (/restore) image to (/from) it. 2. Executing Winki stored in USB flash drive/ MSI Driver Disc by pressing to choose boot device during POST. ▶ Live Update This tool can detect and update your BIOS online so that you won't need to spend time searching manually. Important HDD Backup and Live Update request Winki, please install the "Winki" software application from MSI Driver Disc in Windows first. And then you can access these two utilities by clicking their respective buttons. 2-19
