How to Convert an ISO to an Acronis True Image
Acronis True Image is a hard drive imaging program that can copy and back up your ISOs (the entire contents of a DVD or CD disc in one complete "image") to your computer's entire hard drive. This software accommodates all Windows users (including Windows 7), who can use Acronis to re-boot an entire system from a back-up image if their computers crash. Converting an ISO to an Acronis True Image is the same thing as backing up an ISO from a CD or DVD to your computer.
