WHS 2011 Restore CD

Question

Sign in to vote

Hello,

I have a back of my pc on my windows home server 2011.

I'm trying to restore my CD after a Harddisk failed.

But i cannot find the restore CD image anywhere.

I found http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5587

But it seems it only works for older WHS versions (not 2011)

USB restore media, is not an option for me, (no USB slots avavilable)

i have made the usb stick with restore software on it,

and tried to somehow convert it to a CD without any luck

Can anyone tell me where to get the Restore CD, if it exists?

(it is mentioned multiple places in the "Using the Full System Restore wizard" text -> http://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-gb/windowshomeserver2011/backup-restore-overview-2.aspx)

I don't believe you will find one to download but you could try this method if you have another working PC available:
Restore on a Client PC

Phil P.S. If you find my comment helpful or if it answers your question, please mark it as such.

Not the best solution i had hoped for, as it requires more manual configuration every time, not as "automatic"

but only got this problem with a few machines (no USB)

thanks for your answer :)

I got my Home Server through TechConnect and there is a CD image available on the website

You should have got one with your server license
