Any of you use a program like Acronis to backup an image to dissimilar hardware?
Meaning, take an image of a Latitude D620 using an Acronis CD that has the drivers (chipset - which should include storage) for all my other models and deploy it on say an Optiplex 780?
I keep seeing HAL mentioned on Acronis’ site. Where are the HAL drivers located? I got a couple from the i386 folder (off the XP SP3 CD)…is it safe to assume they are the same for every installation of Windows XP SP3 in the world? However, when I try to import them into the Acronis program to build the CD, it tells me no valid .inf’s are available although I did copy a HAL.inf file in.
Trying to make one image to maintain instead of having 10 that I have to update one by one (drivers, updates, software, etc.).
