Which app do you use to create the disk image?  We tried several different apps but we haven't been entirely happy with any of them. 

I use Paragon Hard Disk Manager Suite as it also allows me to create and modify disk partitions on the fly along with imaging and other tasks.  As it is not unusual for me to build PCs I have used it quite and lot and find it reliable. 

The other program I have used in the past if Norton Ghost which seemed to work well but that was when working in a PC repair shop and I have not used it for a few years now.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
