Free Image Ghosting Software

[karldenton]

Hi,

Can anyone recommend good software to image / ghost pc's.

Ideally just store the image on CD or DVD and when it goes down, just stick the CD in.

You could use FOG which is a server based utility so you build a machine, pull the image back from it before doing anything else and then should all go wrong you can put the image back to it, or you could also use Clonezilla which would create an image to wherever you tell it to and then you use the Clonezilla disk to bring the machine back by pointing it at where the image is located.

DriveImage XML - although it's only for personal use.

 

CloneZilla?

Have you tried a search? We really should have a sticky of things like imaging solutions it gets asked about soo many times.

Package ImageX onto a WinPE cd and do it from that?

We use FOG here, works quite well for us.

PING Partimage Is Not Ghost

Have a look at the ping project. I have used Ping to make hidden backup partition that stores a restoration image. It works well and is free.

 

There is also an option that allows you to put the image on a dvd but I haven't tried that yet.

I would suggest Clonezilla if imaging multiple computers from one image.
