    If you want an up to date generic DVD/USB then read my post#409.
    Now it`s corrected.
    (when i did it the first time (64bit) i was "shure" that i used the REARM command so sorry guys for waisting your time)
    I`ve made both 32bit and 64bit this way and both 100% working.
    :rolleyes:

    Wow alright hehe. Ill wait for your reply tomorrow:)
    Is there a checkbox i need to/should uncheck?

    Edit:
    All checked boxes are; Generalize, rearm, Generic Image & Capture Now
    Unchecked are; Keep drivers & No sysprep.

    Is that good?

    Well, your options are good.

    On my side, the restore on my coworker computer was perfect. He was up and running in less than 1 hour :D
    all drivers where OK also.

    Nice hehe. I hope you did a generic image, beacuse generalize option works finr for me as well:)
    Its just the stupid generic that wont work.. Tried earlier today again with only chrome and avira antiviruse, same s**t.

    You say that the Generalize option works. Did you use the "Keep the Drivers" option checked or not? It may makes a difference.

    Thats is normal. You can't create a Generic image while keeping the drivers.

    If you DO NOT create a geneirc image, but a normal image with the following option, does it works :
    - Generalize
    - Rearm

    DO NOT check "Keep Drivers" (should do the same things than with a generic image)

    Yea i know its suppose to uncheck Keep drivers box:)

    Yea creting a normal image for that laptop everything works fine. Should I try create a generic image and uncheck generalize & rearm? Will that work or are they needed?

    Thay are needed. Rearm is automatic and Generalize is needed to clean-up the drivers.

    I am thinking that windows Updtes push a drivers for some of your peripherals and the Generalize option dfon't like it. That is why I always make generic image under VmWare.

    Well, aside your problems whic is unreleated to my software (it just use sysprep, I am not renponsible for it shortcommings), I did'nt change anything in the script, except 2-3 errors in the documentation file and the new translation you send me. So, I think the next release will be the final one. Maybe in 2 days, cause my GF grand-father's had a stroke and we have to got to the hospital tomorrow.

    This is BS..

    I Used Version 2 Final, installed, prepped (only with windows updates and avira antivirus), launched recovery tools, selected generic image, captured and failed!
