Aomei Windows PE Builder 2.0 and System Restore
Hi,
I have a Lenovo pc running windows 8.1 and I'm having problems running system restores.
Would I be able to run a system restore from my Aomei Windows PE Builder 2.0 ?

And, yes, you can perform a system restore of previously created System or Disk Backups using the bootable media created with PE Builder 2.0.
Thank you all for your help.
On my first attempts at a system restore I received an error message "0x80070005".
On the last attempt I ran the system restore whilst in safe mode but Ireceived the
error - "0X8007051a'. On all attempts I had anti-virus software turned off.
Apologies but can you please explain the procedure for "previously created System
or Disk Backups using the bootable media created with PE Builder 2.0." which you
mentioned. I'm still a novice at using PE builder !
Thanks.
Just been experimenting with Aomei Backupper. I see that I would be able to
perform a "system backup" . When I attempt to "back up the source data to the
location below" I receive the message "The disc space may be insufficient".
The size (used) of the partitions on pc are as follows :
*:winre-drv 466 MB
*:system.drv 33 MB
C: 61 GB
On the Advance settings I've set the Compression tab to 'High'.
Can you give me an idea of the size of the back up media required
for this specified system backup ?
Thanks.
"On my first attempts at a system restore I received an error message "0x80070005".
---Did you use AOMEI Backupper to create the system backup and then do the restore? Did you mean that the restored system can't boot?
"previously created System
or Disk Backups using the bootable media created with PE Builder 2.0."---If you have created backup via AOMEI Backupper, if there is no system on your computer, you can boot the computer from the WinPE bootable media created by AOMEI Backupper or AOMEI PE Builder, then restore the backup.
""The disc space may be insufficient"."---Where did you save the backup to? How big is the target location? Based on your data, the system backup might be 20gb or so. Generally, before backup, the program will estimate the backup size based on your data and detect the free space of the target drive.
Apologies I did not make it clear - the system restores I refer to (which failed) were Microsoft windows system
restores.The PE Builder solution would be ideal as an alternative way to perform a system restore in this
situation.
Thank you for explaining the procedure for "previously created System or Disk Backups using the bootable
media created with PE Builder 2.0." I understand this now.
"20gb for the system backup - guess I'll need to purchase an external hard drive.
Thanks for all your help.
