Re: USB Thumb drive fails to image new classmate

According to FIRST it should work. however, I may have hit a roadblock, clt now tells me they do not offer "restore CD's" for windows 7 since one can be made from the win 7 partition. NOT GOOD for us since the FIRST USB key re-partitioned the drive and this will not work. options I am investigating:

1. Get an XP restore CD from clt. I am not sure if the "restore" CD's will still attempt to access the wiped out partition of if the CD has everything it needs.

2. Install WindowAIK (automated installation kit) on a "technition" pc and mount the Image that FIRST supplied (that has the corrupt UDP.llb file) and use ImageX to modify the image by deleting the file and then attempt to reimage. This is WAY outside my comfort zone and have printed a few hundred pages of Microsoft TechNet doc's.

3. Buy either XP of win 7, and do a clean install and then fight driver problems.

4. Beg FIRST for a new image to see if it was just a freak corruption.

5. Get another team to make a restore CD from there classmate. Again I am not sure if it will work with the wiped partition. This may also open up driver problems due to the restore CD installing XP.

None of the above are very appealing.

Ideas very welcome!

Thanks everyone.
Ken
