well .... its not the 50 user limit as I perceived previously
imaging using shadow protect IT key ... continued
.... continue my work imaging w-xp over to the new asustek mb based PC
now I am using the SP IT key
started it up, choose W2008 R2 recovery
then click HIR config
it will scan the current installation,
then it will ask for drivers like msahci
I pop the driver cd in the CDROM
browse to the exact driver location ( have to do it again, the first time is too generic, it says it installed , but not)
thanks god
w-xp eventually started ,,, oh dear ... the next screen is windows xp activation.
MS acyivation team is not sympathetic thses days
anyway I activated the XP image
oh dear , what a mission....
as of now, if i use IT key to create an image, I have to use IT key to restore it
another weird thing is Intel AMT, the default password is admin, I have to choose a complicated password

shadowProtect backup and restore license problem
eventually I encountered this problem .... I can't restore because the IT edition license is not with me
I seemed to remember I can download a time-limited IT edition ISO, but I don't have a blank CD with me
pretty angry day ....
I am supposed to install a new PC for a guy
but he wanted his current XP PC being imaged over...
they got another guy did a similar thing on another new PC which I fixed the XP license issue (another blog topic)
I have the IT Ed. CD with me so I used it to create the image , the speed is about 26Mb/s ~ 30Mb/s, for more than 100 GB C: drive , it is still a long time, the IT cd will ask for license server for both back and restore; ah...... ; I managed to connect this source PC back to my office PC which the shadow protect IT key license server running ,
I got the source PC's imaged,
now trying to restore to a new PC which has an ASUS MB, I called the PC supplier, they confirmed this MB will run w-xp pro.
I tried IT ed cd v. 4.1.2 , it can boot but can't see the onboard NIC,
tried SP RE 4.1.5 , eventually used this cd to restore , it didn't complain initially, but after 60 miniutes of restoring, there is a message "HIR ... unknown volume"
upon starting the new PC, I see the blue screen ...
start the new PC with the IT cd and RE CD, the it cd asking for license (it is a licensed image, dispointing, ) the RE CD reported that the image key is missing, ah........... I used the IT ed created the image properly
very upset , just because I don't have the IT ED USb key with me

use GParted to resize a windows 7 partition, boot partition C:
use GParted to resize a windows 7 partition
my notebook an ancient amd turion x64, running w7 x64, the C: drive size is 49GB, running out of space, I need 10GB from the D: drive (99GB with 16GB free).
so I downloaded the free gparted iso, burn the cd, boot my notebook with the gparted cd
and shrink the D: drive, and move the partition to the right, and extend the C: drive
alas, it took about 3 hours to make all the changes...
and what is is more , in a rush to re-size the partition, I didn't do the RTFM, oh,.. dear, apparently blue screen may happen doing this way according to Gparted website doc.
if that happens, I have to ge a w7 x64 repair disc
luckiy for me, blue screen does not show up for me.
it works on the first boot after resizing
