You can download Microsoft System Preparation Tool from 

www.microsoft.com

 or 

extract from deploy.cab located on Windows XP installation CD. 

Below is a brief instruction on how to prepare your hard disk for cloning or 
transferring to another PC: 

1.

 

Create Acronis True Image Server bootable media using the corresponding 
wizard in the Acronis True Image Server menu. 

2.

 

Run sysprep.exe. You can specify the following as command line parameters: 

-nosidgen — if you plan to delete all data from the old disk and/or don’t plan 
to use the old and new disks in different PCs simultaneously; 

-mini — if you plan to transfer your OS to a PC with different hardware. 

3.

 

Insert Acronis True Image Server bootable disk into the drive and load the 
program to create an image of the prepared disk. 

4.

 

Install the new disk into your PC or provide image access from the new PC. 

5.

 

Boot from the bootable disk again and restore the image to the new disk or PC. 

6.

 

Reboot. 

We recommend you to read Microsoft’s sysprep articles available to the following 
OS: Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows 2003. 

How can I burn Acronis True Image Server images to DVD discs? 

Acronis True Image Server can burn images to DVD discs under Windows, if you 
have DVD UDF recording software installed. The DVD disc must be formatted. 
Currently the program supports at least the following DVD recording software: 

 

Roxio DirectCD — optional component of Roxio Easy CD Creator; 

 

Ahead InCD — available on Nero website freely for Ahead Nero Burning Rom 

users (usually bundled with Nero); 

 

Veritas DLA and all its OEM versions (e.g. HP DLA); 

 

Pinnacle InstantCD/DVD. 

In general the program also supports all other DVD UDF burst recording software, 
but the aforementioned applications was tested by Acronis for compatibility with 
Acronis True Image Server . 

To enable image recording to DVD in Acronis True Image Server you should do the 
following: 

 

Install DVD UDF recording software; 

 

Format DVD discs. DVD+RW and DVD-RW discs can be formatted in any of the 

aforementioned applications, while DVD-R and DVD+R formatting is currently 
supported by Roxio DirectCD only;
