  • 1.  windows 7 64bit decompression error

    Posted Feb 05, 2010 08:58 PM
    hello...

    i just finished creating an image of a windows 7 64bit machine, i ran sysprep first OOTBE generalize and then shut down.  I then tested the image on another machine and i get a decompression error. I have a choice to abort or ignore ( i think) i choose ignore and it goes on to image the machine but after it is and try start up the machine it doesn' boot up. i am using ghostcast 11.5.1.2266.

    What is the proper way of creating a windows 7 64bit image? and then imaging another machine?

    Please help!

    Thank you,
    rz

    For Windows 7 imaging :

    Ghost by default does not save the System Reserved Partition which is created during Windows 7 operating System installation. An image of
    this partition has to be created separately. During the system restore, the System Reserved Partition has to be restored before restoring the OS partition.

    BEST PRACTICE: Take a disk image (default create image
    task settings) of a Windows 7 machine.

    You can perorm Sysprep in the usual way.
