What I have done is initiate the restore procedure from windows and if its the system partition it will say it haas to do the restore with the cd, and at that point instead of hitting ok, you boot with the cd and it just works -- I have definitely done this.

Not true. You can't just shove the Macrium rescue disk into your DVD drive, and bang, zoom, it automatically restores your computer from the external hard drive without any intervention. You have to initiate the restoration procedure, which requires sight because there is no speech available when the rescue disk is loaded.

Actuallyk, if you have a recovery disk, you do the restore from windows and it boots from the recovery disk and does its thing without intervention.

I also use Macrium Reflect to periodically create image backups of my computer. But you would still need tech-savvy sighted help to restore the image from the backup external hard drive because the rescue disk is totally inaccessible with JAWS.

I use Macrium Reflect to back up my home computer. I like that with itοΏ½s free version you can do disc cloning. It is also pretty accessible using JAWS. You do need to use the JAWS cursor to access some functions, but it it works very well.

Richard,
I have pretty much given up on making assertions about accessibility since things change such that something that had been entirely accessible might become less so to just plain "not." That being said, if you're trying to make full system image backups and/or separate user data backups for a home system I'd definitely give EaseUS To Do Backup Free a whirl just to see whether it's accessible.
It's what I use not because it's the best (as in most sophisticated and allows the most configuration) backup software out there but because of the ease of use of its interface. My partner is, how shall I put it, not particularly technically inclined and he can run a routine backup with it because once you set it up it's just a "click and run" affair.
In doing a quick whirl around the main program page with NVDA just now I can easily land on the Recovery, Backup, and Advanced buttons. I cannot seem to get over to the main column of setup buttons on the left side, but I'm not great with any of the newer navigation methods like Object Navigation, so these may be accessible via a method I don't normally use or could be entirely inaccessible. In the event that they are entirely inaccessible, if you have assistance to set up your backup schemes you can definitely run them without any assistance, as that pane allows accessibility to all buttons.
