Hi, I attempted to clone an existing bootable drive using this program, but after 4 hours or so of the 'clone' process, the program seemed to end in a positive manner....no error messages. However, when trying to view the disk....it has only one file named "System" with a file length of 9 bytes. The disk has no bytes free, and only a size of 9 bytes. I am going to make the assumption that this is NOT a successful conclusion. My question is thus......since the clone process did not work....is there a way to re-format the drive back to a 'usable' state, as Win 7 will not let me attempt any format operation on the drive in this current state. Please tell me that DD11 has not made this new drive into a paperweight for my desk. Any suggestions as to a program that can undo what DD11 has done?

Thanks,
Scott

Can you post a screenshot of what DD shows and what Disk Management shows?

You could try cleaning the drive with DISKPART. That should reset it.
