So if you have to restore a Win7 image, choose Set Active for Win7. Although I have no idea how BootCamp works.

Re: So if you have to restore a Win7 image, choose Set Active for Win7.

When you say, "choose Set Active for Win7," do you mean somewhere within Norton Ghost 15?

This is my basic understanding of how to restore Windows 7 in the event it crashes. The possible scenario is that Windows 7 does not boot and needs to be restored with, in my case, Norton Ghost.

The first step is to insert the Norton Ghost install cd, and from there I should be able to access the image disk of Windows 7 as stored on an alternative hard disk. At some point within the Norton Ghost text prompts via the Ghost cd, I will have the opportunity to choose "Set Active for Win7." After completing a series of Ghost prompts, the operating system will begin to restore itself on the same hard disk where it was before.

I haven't actually done this procedure, but that's how I think it is done.
