[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="9" id="3354101"] Sounds great. The image is sector by sector...should a chkdsk /f /r be run first to verify integrity of the sectors (as well as defragging, etc.)?

DriveSnapshot is a tiny .exe (no installation required) that only requires a simple one-line command to take the image silently and deposit it where se
I have been using the Server edition of this software for years. Best feature-set for the cost. For home and workstation complete image setups I like to use silent-run scripts with a nifty little utility I found many years ago ( www.drivesnapshot.de ). I've got things set to take the image in the background while the user keeps computing in the foreground. Works great and the user isn'

[quote who="Draginol" reply="115" id="3349457"]My general point is that if we want to keep the society we have, we should be thankful that most people's emotional instinct towards those who would seek to destroy them is anger and not compassion.[/quote] I couldn't disagree more, but then that is why I ended my rather long post on page 4 with that 'agree to disagree' remark.

We as a society [i]are[/i] treating 'criminal intent' each day. My comments go to [u]how[/u] we do so. Do we do so in a way that causes us to become 'monsters' like those we are attempting to 'treat' or do we do so in a way that solidifies our position as stewards of our society and its values?

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="69" id="3348820"]I'm of the opinion that this is utopian fantasy, at serious odds with reality. I don't believe any amount of 'understanding' will prevent such actions in the future. I've seen no evidence for believing otherwise. Furthermore, there's no way to measure the effectiveness of 'understanding' or anything done as a consequence of 'understanding', to know anything has been thereby prevented. I understand that
The US appears to be well on its way in stripping more and more of what its citizens refer to as 'freedom'. No joke, at some point that nation may no longer be able to present itself to the world as the paragon of same. It's too bad that so many americans seem content with the fact that what has become their 'culture of fear' is being used to slowly and systematically erode their 'freedom'. Unfortunately it appears our government
