- 1. About DiskEditor
- --------------------
-
- From time to time there are problems with hard disks
- that cannot be solved other than with a simple disk
- editor. The list of such problems is rather long: back
- up copy, recovery of bootsectors as well as other
- important data areas of a hard disk, search and
- extraction of information occasionally removed or lost
- due to failures, restoration of computer's up state
- after destructive viruses' influence, and many other
- things. The professional Acronis DiskEditor software
- will help users to solve these tasks.
-
- Acronis DiskEditor allows to edit contents of hard disk
- sectors, representing them in the most convenient way.
- It has simple and effective means of disk navigation and
- searching, saving sectors contents to files, and reading
- them from files.
-
- Acronis DiskEditor program is very simple from the angle
- of interface, but it reflects all details of data
- storage structures of hard disks whether it concerns
- Partition table, File Allocation Tables, Root folder, or
- data area.
-
-
- DiskEditor has the following features:
- --------------------------------------
-
- * Hexadecimal mode of hard disk partition contents
- viewing as DiskEditor's universal operating mode.

- viewing that allow to work effectively with all disk
- data storage structures like Partition tables, FAT and
- NTFS partition bootsectors, root and other FAT folders.
-

- you edit sector contents and then make a decision
- about saving disk changes or discarding them.
-
- * DiskEditor multiwindow operating mode: an opportunity
- of working with contents of one or several disk
- sectors in different windows.
-
- * Unified intuitive graphic user interface with full
- mouse support.

- 2. System Requirements
- -----------------------
-
- DiskEditor can be installed on any PC-compatible computer
- with Pentium or similar processor, 32 Mb RAM or higher,
- 3.5" floppy for booting from diskettes or CD-ROM drive
- for installation from the compact disc, SVGA-compatible
- videocard, and 800x600 monitor or better.
-
-
- 3. Installation Recommendations
- --------------------------------
-
- You can run the installation program from the compact
- disc under Windows and choose to either load DiskEditor
- directly from the CD, to create a bootable diskette for
- it. If you choose to create a bootable diskette, Acronis
- DiskEditor will not require any operating system to load.
-
- In the mode of operating from Windows OS Acronis
- DiskEditor works with disks supported by your version of
- Windows. In case of independent work from a bootable
- diskette or CD-ROM Acronis DiskEditor will work
- correctly with disks of any capacity supported by your
- computer's BIOS.
-
- We strongly recommend you create a bootable diskette. In
- case of bootsector damage you will be able to restore
- computer's up state with it.
