Whoo...I have to resurrect this really old thread since I ran into the same issue on the current build (1.2.2.0) running on a Windows 7 Home Premuim 32Bit edition (fully patched and no Anti Virus software running).

Hi etheesdad,
I checked out Clonezilla last night and must admit that you're right: It's unusable for a NOOB- Linux.

cmediadrivers - Google Code
