Dell™ Backup and Recovery Manager V1.0 Page 30
11. When function key F8 is pressed during boot of a system with Windows XP
installed, a Windows Boot Manager screen will appear. This screen allows you
to choose the operating system to start. You should have only one operating
system listed and it will say Windows Vista even though you have Windows
XP installed. When you press Enter, Windows XP will start normally. This is a
cosmetic issue only and will be fixed in the next version of DBRM. The reason
for this issue is that Dell Backup and Recovery Manager uses Windows Vista’s
boot manager so it was substituted for Windows XP’s NTLDR boot manager.
12. A Windows XP system with Dell Backup and Recovery Manager installed will
not have the Windows Recovery Environment containing your Dell Factory
Image, or the Dell Recovery Media option on the Dell Recovery Tools screen.
See
8 Windows Recovery Environment for the restore options available
for a Windows XP system.
13. When you restore your Dell Factory Image, for example, you may notice that
the names of previous backups are retained in the dropdown list of backups
available to restore. While this may seem strange at first, this is normal
behavior. If you created backups previously on other media such as DVD or
an external USB drive and we did not retain the names in the database for
you, you would not be able to restore them. By retaining the names, you still
have the option to restore them.
