Abstract: A method and program for setting up a Master computer for imaging a computer hard drive from one hardware platform to a second, dissimilar hardware platform is disclosed. The program will be deployed onto a first computer. The program strips down the operating system files, hardware driver files, and registry settings of the computer to a very basic level, and resets certain system files, driver files, and registry settings. The Master computer may then be cloned or imaged onto a second computer without the second computer crashing. The program allows cloning and conversion between computers, even if the computers are different models or are made by different manufacturers.
