6 Restoring the Flash Image

System Requirements

To create a recovery device for the purpose of reflashing or restoring the software image on the

ROM, you will need the following:

●

A personal computer running Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Windows Vista, or Windows

● One or more HP t610 Series Thin Clients

●

4-GB USB flash device for Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 2009 (WES) (if using the

USB format) or Linux.

This restore method will not work with all USB flash devices. USB flash devices with

multiple partitions generally do not support this restore method. The range of USB flash devices

available on the market is constantly changing. Not all USB flash devices have been tested with

the HP Thin Client Imaging Tool.

Before using the utility, you must download the appropriate image from

http://www.hp.com.

Getting Started

There are two deployment options supported by this utility. You can choose to do one or more of the

following using your personal computer:"

●

Create a bootable flash image on a USB flash device.

●

Unbundle the image to a directory for use in a custom deployment scenario or PXE image.

Download and run the Package-for-the-Web deliverable (an .exe file) that contains the original factory

image for the thin client. The HP Thin Client Imaging Tool (CRStart.exe) runs automatically.

Choose one of the deployment options: Each option is described in the following paragraphs.

Deployment

During the restore process, the thin client flash drive will be reformatted and all data on it will

be erased before the system image is copied to it. To prevent loss of data, be sure that you

have saved any user-created data from the flash drive. During the first restart of the thin client

following the restore process, it may take approximately 15 minutes to unbundle the software

before the Windows Desktop is displayed.
