You can usually resolve this by booting with no USB devices attached or by going to the BIOS and disabling USB Emulation (this is a big problem on laptops an external USB CD ROM)Chadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4482521283458453577.post-35990291909383708662008-08-14T19:43:00.000-07:002008-08-14T19:43:00.000-07:00Thanks for commenting.

In light of the cold boot and firewire tools recently posted, do you believe Pre-boot is better? Or will it just encourage users to leave their machines turned on to avoid the inconvenince of the pre-boot login? Should we disable standby as an option and go with pre-boot? What do you recommend to clients and why (you mentioned in the custom preboot entry that WIL was enabled)? Your insight is appreciated.tombtekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05633864361786669919noreply@blogger.com
