T400 keeps restarting after being re-imaged with Ghost

I built an XP image with the recovery disks from Lenovo.

 

Now I'm trying to dump this image on to other T400's that are straight out of the box and after the image is done loading the laptop will just keep restarting.

 

Please help.

 

Configuration:

- hard drive is set to ACHI (defualt)

- did a full disk image when dumping down.

 

I don't get a flashing cursor or error message the laptop will just restart aftee the Lenovo Screen.

Re: T400 keeps restarting after being re-imaged with Ghost

ashaikh, welcome to the forum,

 

how did you create the image? Did you capture the 4 boot blocks using the -IB switch?

 

There is a tip, a bit old and you can ignore the part about setting the predesktop area to disabled, but it should hopefully help you.

 

Partition does not boot after being restored with Norton Ghost

 

The title may also not seem to be 100% relevant. The important part is the -IB switch - See this thread.

 

Hope this helps

Andy
