NOTE:
Create a factory default image when you want to burn a
bootable disc that contains your computer's
entire operating
system as it was delivered to you from the factory. If you wish to
have a disc that will
allow you to browse the contents and install
selected drivers and applications, create a drivers and
application
backup instead — this disc will not be bootable.
