Hi, is it possible with C++ to backup the whole system image of your PC, meaning not just coping files, but the whole operating system, with all its programs and

files, and to schedule to do it like once a week, including all the drives specified, I have external HD 4TB, Seagate model (which i want to use as destination

drive to store disk image on it). I was unable use to use Windows 7 System Image backup, since this type of HD (Seagate) is new and structured differently.

I am aware of a software like DiskWizard which can be found at

http://www.seagate.com/support/internal-hard-drives/desktop-hard-drives/barracuda-xt/discwizard-master-dl/

which does the job, however, they sell one license for 1 PC, and i would want for more then one PC, like for at least 3.

Get back, thanks in advance.

Yes it is possible, but it is not a simple application.

I tried to use backup system image in the control panel in Windows 7,
I get this error:

One of the backup files could not be created (0x8078002A)

Additional Information:
The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.(0x8007045D)
How exactly i should re-format my external USB drive ?

Not to revive an old thread -- but if you're looking for an already existing free solution veeam.com/endpoint will do what you want I think
