Can I make a CD image of my computer HD using another computer,
You havent said this clearly enough.
You can certainly put that HD in another computer and
create an image file of it using both of those you list.
Its harder to do if you want to run DI or Ghost
in a different computer to the one the drive is in.
You can however run both DI and Ghost in the PC
which has the HD you want to image in it, and write
the image file across the lan to a different PC which
has a drive with enough space on it for the image file.
Bit more tricky to setup if the network card in the PC
whose drive is being imaged isnt natively supported,
but still doable with more knowledge.
That is possible two different ways, either by writing to the
CD directly with the burner in the PC that DI or Ghost is
running in, or by writing the image file to a hard drive in
CD sized chunks and then manually putting those image
file fragments onto CDs in the PC which has the burner in it.
and then restore it using a CD (not a CD RW)?
You presumably mean using a cdrom drive.
Yes, both ghost and DI will do restores like that.
The programs I have to do this are
Drive Image 2002 and Ghost 2003.
Both will do what you want. The fine
detail of how you do it varys with exactly
what you want to do image creation wise.
If this is the laptop being imaged, and it doesnt have
a burner in it, it would normally be best to write the
image file across the lan to the PC which has the
burner in it, and you would need enough space on
its hard drive for the image file, before its burnt to CDs.
