Ghost Solution Suite

Hello,

I took an audit image from an Acer Travelmate b133 to deploy, and for some reason, when I deploy the image using a local connection, it shows "no bootable device found".  I'm using Ghost 11.5, Windows 7.  This has not happened with any other image that I've taken or deployed, even on other Acers.  I checked the integrity of the image, and it was good.  The image completed without any issues.  The BIOS settings are the same on both computers.  I checked the hard drive with Hiren's, and windirstat shows that the files ARE on the C:\ drive of the imaged computer.  I checked to see if there was an MBR, and it was there (using MBRwiz). 

I've been banging my head against the wall for a couple of days now.  Any help?  I've also tried deploying image with FOG, but it did the same thing:  "no bootable device found".

I don't know what to check anymore.  It's a brand-new acer (both of them are).  It's an audit image, so it doesn't run into the issue of deploying a live image.

Thanks for any and all help!

Windows 7 includes a small (100Mb) hidden partition at the start of the disk which is essential for the operating system to start. Is that present?

Also, did the source machine have a maintenance partition?  Once again, the order of partitions must be identical for the system to boot correctly.

Finally, do not exclude the possibility of a hardware failure. Try the hard disk from the working machine in the one that is reporting "no boot device" and see whether it then boots.
