Restoring Acronis partition image

S

I have backed up my C drive which is the primary active partition.
When I try to restore it to the C drive, I am given the option of
restoring it as an active partition or as a logical partition. I would
normally select "active". If, however, I select "logical", does that
mean that my computer will no longer boot to the C drive? Which drive
will it then boot to? (I have an E and G logical drives that are
partitions of the C drive, I also have a physical D drive that is
partitioned into D and F).

Since Windows will only boot into an active primary partition,
this is what you must create. You should actually try it for
yourself - it's the only way to be absolutely sure!
