I modified the Vista Recovery Disk plugins to make them work for Windows 7, I think. I don't have a 64-bit computer so I can't try it. Can someone please test them for me and give me the results? Thanks!

If there are any problems with downloading, please let me know and I'll put them on another site.

All links worked for me as well

Of course this statement -

Thankfully, Microsoft seems to have realized this problem, and have thankfully made a recovery disc for this purpose.

is one of the most blatant lies ever.

Do y'all mean the links work or the plugin works?

The links.

I have integrated both with my latest build (once dumb ol' me figured out to extract the files from the image). I was out of town today, so let me check with my techs tomorrow and let you know how it worked.

Thank you

[Lord Necron]

Way overdue, but it seems the plugin(s) worked. Thank you!

So what should you do if you want to run Win7 RD as a Multiboot plugin, i.e without booting UBCD first? Anyone here with working config files?
