The version of arconis=A0I use at my job can create a bootable disc (cd/dvd= )=A0that is basically free of the type of operating system you are copying, the only thing important with this is access to a machiene that you can install acronis on to create the disc on. YMMV though I have 1 system the bootdisc will not work on Peter ----- Original Message ---- From: Tony Smith To: Microcontroller discussion list - Public.
