    Well I solved this error by going into disk management and turning all my other disks off-line except my C: disk (system). Then when I ran create repair disk, no problems. Then I just went back into disk management and turn them back online again. Simples!
    When I go into disc management, I do not see an option to turn off the discs. How is this done? Thanks.

    Rather than spend any more time attempting to make a Win 7 repair disc when the computer won't let me, down anyone know where I can download the MICROSOFT Windows 7 - 64 bit repair disc?

    I've looked everywhere on the Internet and I do not see it available.

    Thanks for your help.

    You'd probably be better off downloading an installer, if you don't have one already.

    Well, I do not have that option.... there is no "offline" option available. I'm running Win 7 Home Premium, not Professional. Perhaps that's the reason.

    That shouldn't be the problem, are you in an admin account?

    I'm the sole user and the administrator. I ran diskmgmt as administrator and I still do not have the option to set the drive as offline. All I have is "Convert to dynamic disk", "properties" and "help". I suppose I could go into properties and disable the drive, but I'd rather just take it offline using your method. Diskmgt does not give me that option. Looks like another Microsoft screwup.

    And, I typed "get-disk" in Powershell as your link shows and the command is not recognized by Powershell.

    I'll simply use a third party program such as Macrium or EaseTodoUS.

    But I do have another question: I cloned my C drive (not imaged it) to an external USB drive using third party software. When I go into Macrium or EaseUSTodoBackup at boot up to see if those programs will reinstall the cloned USB drive onto the hard drive in the computer, they only ask to select the IMAGE file. There is no option to select the entire cloned drive. Does this mean that I must image the drive for these programs in order to reinstall the system? Why isn't there an option to simply copy the entire cloned USB drive onto the hard drive C in the computer?
    Will saving an image give me the complete reinstall of the hard drive from the USB drive (system, programs, everything)?
    Thanks for your help.

    Update:
    I used "Diskpart" to offline all disks other than the system C. Despite doing so, I'm still not able to create a Windows system repair disk. I keep getting the same error.

    Screw this. I'll simply use a third party program.

    Thanks again for your help, guys.

    Hi,
    A clone you'd have to re-clone to the other disk,
    A system image can be restored to any disk or opened and mounted to where you can copy and paste a single file from it also a system image is compressed to save space.
    A clone is 1 for 1 as the exact same size as the original.

    Those iso download links will expire 24 hours after I posted them so get it while it's still hot which is about 9 more hours left

    "Those iso download links will expire 24 hours after I posted them so get it while it's still hot which is about 9 more hours left"

    Those links allow me to download Windows 7, right? I already have that OS on my computer. Could you please let me know why you provided those links...is there something that I'm missing? Thanks again.
