I believe this time too i have posted in wrong thread indeed!!!
Software forum might have been better ... and speaking of which, what program created that?
Actually, most of it looks self-explanatory. The DiskInfo section describes the physical characteristics of the disk in question, all pretty obvious except for "Signature" - some sort of checksum? - and "One" which is identical to signature. (I'd have to consult a table or program to convert "PartitonType" to something understandable, but I do know how to do that.)

Lenovo laptops with one key recovery does has a hidden partition in which backup of complete OS as well as drivers are saved......
Now the most funny thing, they have partition structure 650 GB main drive c and 29 GB backup drive to save image of c drive and 30GB hidden parition...
Their software can create new image of drive and factory recovery disc.... Factory recovery disc allows creating whole partition, including hidden one..
Our self created backup cant recover partition, nor allows custom partitioning, neither allows to create recovery disc with a new set of OS....
So i created factory restore disc and i found few files, one is a huge extentionless backup 6 GB file compressed in .000 to .073, backup.wsi, backup.dsi, backup.oki and few file required for cd to boot.....
These are content of backup.wsi file and it seems xml file more closely than a wise installer and i was thinking to replace .000 to .073 backup files with my own created backup....
YEAH, the software creating wsi is cyberlink one key recovery but i cant find any in their website, the software is made by them and is distributed to lenovo systems only... :\
I was stucked at starting offset and filesize limit, cant figure out what they mean....
I might go to lenovo forums itself, but i feel all their members are dumb.... To all problems, even a kid problem, they have finally single solution-----> bring to service center......

Each around 100MB (ranges from 102402 KB to 102444 KB)
Hmm, i didnt guess that, i ll try calculating file size limit, and see how it matches with one is wsi file....
