Re: SSD would not Boot

Sorry not what I said.
There are 2 options: "Write Standard MBR" and "W7MBR". The quote from the manual I mentioned was for the W7MBR - NOT for the "Write Standard MBR" option.
These are 2 different options.
If neither option is selected then "Image for Windows does not write standard MBR code unless the MBR is empty."
If "Write Standard MBR" is selected then "Image for Windows (will) install standard MBR code after completing the restore operation. Standard MBR code is the code that boots the active partition."
If "W7MBR" is selected then this tells "Image for Windows (to) use Windows 9x compatible MBR code". The name of this option "W7MBR" is confusing since it's only used to turn OFF the writing of a Win 7 compatible MBR.
Though not explicitly stated in the manual I'm sure that when referring to the "standard MBR" the manual is referring to the Windows 7 compatible MBR.
