error cloning windows 7 starter - feeldumb - 04-19-2016
When I tried to use WinToUSB version 2.9 build apr 6, 2016 to clone my windows 7 starter laptop to a new 32GB USB I get this error:
Disk or partition space is insufficient.(0x000000C2091E0000)
When I say clone, it shows:
Name: Microsoft Windows 7 Starter (x86)
Version: 6.1.7601 Service pack 1 build 7601
System Partition: C:, NTFS, Used 25.02GB, Capacity 80.0 GB
Boot Partition: C:, NTFS, Used 25.02GB, Capacity 80.0 GB
Bios Mode: Legacy BIOS
hit next, get select destination disk
Disk1: JetflashTranscend32GB
Which it formats just fine
Then I get select system and boot partition.
It shows
Disk 1 WinToUSB (F
MBR NTFS
29.42G 29.41G
for both.
I wondered if those were the sizes, but when I removed software from my system to make my boot disk smaller, it showed no change. My C drive now shows 25GB used, which is a lot smaller that the first time I tried this.
But still same error.
(0x000000C2091E0000)
When I try this with my 8GB USB drive, it just says insufficient space, without formatting my USB.
It did create a system from the windows 7 starter iso file I have, but when I boot from that, the screen resolution is not adjustable, it cannot find my wifi (so no net), and none of the troubleshooters appear to work.
I have pared my system disk down to 25GB used.
I wish WinToUSB would tell me how big a USB I need. More useful than just what you got is not enough.
Help, please!

You may need to adjust the size of the VHD(X) disk:
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - feeldumb - 04-21-2016
Installation mode does not allow me to unselect legacy or select VHD or VHDX, nor can I adjust the VHD size.
What does selecting VHD do? (curious, although I cannot select that anyway). Will that create a Virtual Hard Disk? Can I boot from the USB using a VHD?
My intention is to have a bootable USB with my licensed Windows 7 starter on it, to see if certain software I cannot run properly on my laptop will run properly on a new desktop PC I intend to buy (if my software will work on it). The PC I am hoping to buy does not have any OS, so I hoped to have a bootable USB that I could boot the PC from, and test if everything works before I buy it and take it home.
Oh, yes, thank you for the quick reply. I might have noticed sooner, now I am subscribed to this thread.
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - admin - 04-21-2016
Because Windows 7 starter does not support VHD(X), so you cannot create a VHD(X)-based Windows To Go drive.
And WinToUSB will copy all the files in source boot partition (Usually C
to the destination USB drive, so the destination USB drive must be larger than the used space on source boot partition.
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - feeldumb - 04-23-2016
Well, C was 25gb, usb 32gb, same error, how much larger?
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - admin - 04-24-2016
WinToUSB requires that the destination boot partition must be 20% larger than the used space on source boot partition, so the real capacity of your USB falsh drive must be 30G or bigger, but the real capacity of a 32G usb drive is usually only 29.7G, so you need a bigger one.
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - feeldumb - 05-01-2016
Finally, useful information! I reinitialized my laptop and ran WinToUSB and it created a bootable usb for me! I booted from it, and it worked! Thank you!
I wondered how I could tell I booted from the usb stick, since it looked the same, and I thought I would install chrome there, since that is not on my laptop (yet).
Strangely, it put the program files in my laptops hard drive, instead of on the usb.
I know this is not your problem, but I thought I would see if you had any experience that could help me.
Thank you. Have a nice day!

Open Disk Management, if volume C: is on the USB flash disk then you are booting from the usb stick.
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - feeldumb - 05-03-2016
Well, foolishly I tried it again. It wiped out my bootable (maybe) usb, and endid with this error.

This was Sunday, May 1. I thought I already posted this, but I cannot find the post.
RE: error cloning windows 7 starter - feeldumb - 05-03-2016
I did post this. For some reason, searching for feeldumb does not find it, although searching for the error code does.
