Winclone image restore results in blue screen in bootcamp startup

Exact same problem here. Winclone image completes, restore of image completes, Windows boot warns of disk scan, then blue sceen of death (same result if disk scan is skipped).

Any ideas?

Any other suggestions for imaging the bootcamp partition?

Thanks

This is most likely a driver error as you dont have the drivers on the image for the iMac.

I think you can use sysprep to have the drivers install at first run.

I'm experiencing similar problems, but with two known-good Winclone Windows 7 images that were sysprepped prior to capture (one compressed, the other not). During first boot, Windows gets to 64% complete on installing drivers, then goes to a blue screen momentarily before rebooting on its own. During next reboot, status displayed reads "setup is starting services", but there is also an "Install Windows" dialog/error box that reads: "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation."

Of course, clicking on OK and restarting does no good in normal or safe mode.

This is occurring on new out of the box Mac Pros, updated to 10.6.8. The uncompressed image worked flawlessly three weeks ago on a nearly identical new Mac Pro running 10.6.7.

I'm posting this before attempting to rollback to 10.6.7. I'll follow up if I get a resolution.

Using these Winclone options I was able to get it to work.

Remove pagefile.sys Checked

Use DMG format selected

Compressed Not checked

All other options Not checked

Images made with these options restored and booted ok for me.

Hope this helps.
