Industrial automation equipment use CF cards all the time and we image them all the time. I use B&R's Runtime Utility Center to image and restore bootable CF cards (works 100% of the time). It is installed with their PVI development setup: http://br-automation.com/en/downloads/#categories=software/automation-netpvi |

There are free and/or open source windows programs that will capture an image of flash memory - they are usually used in cases of data recovery. Sarch for flash card recovery software and you'll many software packages that do what you need. Here is a page of free software for imaging drives: http://www.thefreecountry.com/utilities/backupandimage.shtml I've used Drive Image XML before (free for home/personal): And WinDD (windows version of linux DD - free, open source): Both work well. WinDD isn't as GUI friendly, but does the job and should work with linux DD images as well. -Adam |

I think True Image will do the trick, it's not free but is very good: http://www.acronis.com/ |
