hp prodesk 600 g2 MT
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

We are currently in the process of renewing our computers. We ordered hp prodesk 600 g2 MT. We are trying to image them instead of installing programs computer by computer. unfortunately we cannot get the computers to boot once imaging is done. We used clonezilla, then Ghost both did not work. Can someone help find a better tool to image those computers ? I don’t know if the UEFI setting is preventing it from booting….

Hello jo-papi,

 

Can you, please give me more information regarding the cloning process? Are you just changing the hard drives of the PCs or you are trying to renew the whole PC – I mean with the motherboard changed and then try to install the HDD? Please, explain, as I could not quite catch the detailes of the situation. If you want to make an image from one desktop to many other PCs, you could find issues during the starting process as the PC of origin has different hardware settings than the others. A clone would work perfectly if you copy the image of a hard drive and transfer it to another HDD.

 

Cheers.
