Cloning Windows 7 with TIH2011- GPT/EFI & Data

Thread needs solution

I just upgraded to TIH2011 and bought the Plus Pak as the documentation pointed out I needed this to clone/backup an dynamic disk or a GPT/EFI slice on my install drive.

When I attempt to either clone the disk, or back the drive up I am unable to select it, there is no error message detailing why I cannot access it or anything.

Can TIH2011+PP clone the drive? All the documentation says I can.

What I am aiming to do is to clone the drive to a larger one because I need to increase the size of the volume.

After continuing to research why it was not working, I found the small print in one of the KBs where is says that cloning of EFI/GPT slices cannot be done even with the Plus Pack.

I used to be able to do in in previous versions (2009 - two HP laptops with larger drives that default), thought I would upgrade to 2011 after I have found it to be very useful - now, it is not so useful.
