USB Image Tool support forum

Because it became more difficult to reply on feedback and error messages just by the WordPress comment function, I have setup a small forum for support questions. I would like you to ask questions there, because it’s easier to keep track of the issues there. Also please make sure that you check the FAQ first. You can find the forum here.

    i need help i dont know why but for some reason i cant switch over to device mode… its stuck in volume mode

  2. Alex Says:

    –> FAQ!

    Q: Why is the mode selection not accessible (grayed)?

    A: Under Windows Vista the device mode requires administrative rights. Right-click the executable and select “Run as administrator”.

    I need help. I’m trying to install Mac OS X PC modified version on my intel laptop. I want to boot it off my ipod. How?

  4. Alex Says:

    Don’t get, how I should be concerned with this. Well, at least I hope you bought the OS X. What’s the question here?

  5. Dennis Learned Says:

    Hello. Under ‘Options’ it says ‘Save settings to registry’, or ‘Remove settings from registry (including favorites). Is this the Windows registry file or a separate ‘option registry’ for the program?
    Thx,
    Dennis

  6. Alex Says:

    It’s the Windows registry.

    After making the USB a bootable drive, I lost some space on it. I’ve tried formating with Full and Quick format, but still doesn’t work. My USB flash drive was 8GB and now it is down to 6GB. Please help me with this problem.
    Thanks you,
    Alexandar

    Hi, I have problems to boot from a INTENSO USB stick,
    ERROR Message can’t find c:\COMMAND.COM

    what’s wrong, I can’t understand, because with anoter smaller usb-stick work it.

  10. Alex Says:

    Usually the image has not been written in device mode.

    I have a bootable 2Gb USB drive. It was made via the Paragon Diskwipe facility. It works fine. I created an image file using Version 1.55 of your USB image tool then restored it on a virgin 4GB USB stick (never been used before). This new USB drive does not seem to be bootable. My Computer show the files are on the drive. Why is this – is the not the image file the same as an ISO file when burning CD’s. Should it not be a clone of the original bootable USB device.

  12. Alex Says:

    If you used device mode for backup and restore, the clone should also be bootable. Tested it myself multiple times with Ubuntu.

    Hi,

    how do I mount the usb images made with USB Image Tool to a windows system drive letter?

  14. Brian Ming Says:

    I made sure I did as you suggested and this time I had success – thank you

  15. Brian Ming Says:

    Just a quick question. If a user has a bootable USB stick and wants it to revert to a normal use memory stick does he just go into My Computer and delete all the files it lists for that drive. Will this give him all the memory back.

  16. Alex Says:

    @db: As far as I know, there is no such tool that can mount such images directly to windows. Maybe you can convert it to a virtual hard drive and use it in VMWare/VirtualBox/VirtualPC, but I don’t know if it’s possible.

  17. Alex Says:

    @Brian Ming: If you used a smaller image on a larger device, you have to write the empty bootsector from the download page to it. After that, you should be able the repartition and reformat it with the original size.
