Could not restore from the system image in ext. hard drive for Windows Server 2008 R2.

Hi,

Its been since 2 weeks I am struck with this issue. Any help is appreciated. I want to restore my server (Windows 2008 R2) to the system image I have in my external hard disk. The problem is my image is not getting recognized by the server when I chose the system repair option while booting with the OS cd.

I placed the files in the folder called WindowsImageBackup in the root folder of the hard disk. The WindowsImageBackup folder has the folder structure like this: WindowsImageBackup\my_pc_name\Backup 2014-03-09 084946\xxxxx.vhd files

I have put the MediaId file inside the "\Backup...." folder. Is it okay? And the MediaId file which I have has .file extension not .bin extension. Is there anything wrong with it?

By the way I tried using the hard disk with USB 2.0 as well as 3.0 . It did not work for both.

What should I do to make my system image recognized?

Thanks in advance!
