Imaging with free Macrium

I'll start a new thread in BSOD Help and Support. Thanks.

Thanks for update. Please see my post and answer on:
BSOD When Trying to Create Recovery Disk in Maxrium Reflect

Seems problem is related to Norton.

Interesting.

There should be a reflect log file.

If it is fltmgr.sys , try turning off your a/v before creating reflect pe.It can cause bsod during mount wim process if you are using WAIK.

I don't use WAIK d/l for my pe creation.

Not clear to me why macrium still insists on WAIK d/l for 7/8 users.

I would recommend Aomei Backupper, fantastic free imaging program. It doesn't have scheduling, though. However, it does have a lot of other features not found in any other free imaging programs.It makes pe without needing WAIK d/l.

Paragon do a free one too. Excellent, and the fastest in the industry. I expect a lot don't use it simply because it doesn't include pe making in the free version.

Very simple to make your own pe.

LOL Looks like we posted at the same time.

Please see my earlier post - and look at my post and answer on:

The problem was related to Norton. Just had to disable NSS while I created Rescue disk. Worked fine.

mjf,

Obviously I don't know why there is a conflict on my PC, maybe becuse I'm still running Vista. All I know for sure is that when I disable NSS, I had no problem creating PE disk. As I noted in my post in the other thread, Maxrium is aware of the problem and has posted the solution in their Knowledgebase. I also reported the problem on the Norton Community forum. BTW, what is DISM?
