this plop.image can then be tucked away in a draw on a dvd, or more likely stored on a file server somewhere by IT.
When you reimage a hard drive you take the broken machine, wipe it clear, then copy all the contents of plop.image back to the hardrive. The beneift is that the machine will effectively be back to factory settings.
You will lose all personal apps and files (unless you backed them up yourself first to an external drive of some sort)
Next time dont mess about with stuff you dont know

Not IT pros at school said they would reimage it. Pretty much we said them we want windows reinstalled so we can use it for our production next week!!!!!
