Send me your snail mail addy offline and I'll send you a copy if you'd
like Snag


Thanks, but it seems to be for older EIDE drives only, not current SATA
ones.

Older versions of Seagate DiscWizard won't recognize a USB mouse when booted
from the rescue CD but the v.11 does. Otherwise I've had no trouble with
it. It can be made to boot from a USB flash drive rather than a CD if the PC
or especially laptop / netbook supports USB boot. AFAIK the flash needs to
be FAT32 and thus won't also hold an image of XP due to FAT32's 4GB file
size limit. OTOH it's a good use for otherwise obsolete 128MB sticks. I
made one to boot Seagate DiscWizard, one for WD TrueImage and one for DOS7
from Win98.
