Problems using DMS Utils 1.2.1
« on: July 23, 2007, 09:42:05 pm »
Hi there,
I keep getting problems using the DMS Utils 1.2.1.
When trying to backp up the original HDD using backupdms.bat, the operation stops after disk scanning.
I exactly did like described in the PhatHack Wiki. I've even tried it on a freshly installed WindowsXP Pro SP2 on my laptop computer.
Here is the log:

DOS SCREEN:

C:\dmsutils>backupdms
This script will make a backup of your DMS and collect some
information about the config of that DMS that we'll use later.

If you are sure you are ready to run this, please press enter
otherwise use CTRL-C to abort.

One thing is odd. All drives are said to have no space of memory left which absolutely is not true!

What am I doing wrong?

Ok guys, I made my day myself!
The problem is the german version of DISKPART.EXE.
The solution: donwload the english version from Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=0FD9788A-5D64-4F57-949F-EF62DE7AB1AE),
copy it to the dmsutils directory and try again.
