Well, I don't really know how AlienRespawn works, but I have a further question about it.
I have 4 partitions In my Alienware M11x R2 (i5,8gb,256ssd win8 64bit) laptop:
1) Recovery partition of about 6.07gb (100% free) probably made by Windows 8.
2) Windows 8 partition (43gb after I shrinked it)
3) Data partition (181gb) - (the unallocated space after shrinking windows 8 partition I created myself).
4) Alienrespawn Recovery partition (8gb) - I created after installing all the drivers/apps using Alienrespawn.
Alienrespawn took a chunk of the data partition and allocated 8GB for the recovery drive. If I use AlienRespawn, I know that it will restore a computer back to its original factory configuration, meaning that it will restore the Windows 8 partition to its original factory configuration. What about Data partition? Will AlienRespawn erase Data partition? Or, it will not affect the Data partition? I tried pressing F8 during bootup but it didn't take me to the recovery console. What could be the problem? Secondly what do I do with the partition made by windows 8 for recovery, should I delete it and recover that space? How?
Regards
