Lost: Installed windows and want to capture the install and make a new win 7 disk out of it

[spidernz]

so i'm lost

I created a win7 usb with win7toolkit with some customizations.

I Installed this windows and further changed things to my liking.

now i want to capture the install and make a new win 7 disk out of it so i can use it as my default install and customize it further if required

How would i go about doing this, in the simplest easiest way???

I saw w7 toolkit has capture image option under tools but i can't find how to work it, i get an error.

I'm not sure if you can capture the currently running OS.

I didn't think that was what that feature did either. But good to hear it confirmed from the creator. I can see how it could be a handy feature, however.

Cheers and Regards

You need first do a sysprep, then capture back to wim. After sysprep, you must outside that windows to do capture, so you need second windows or need to move you hdd to second comp to capture that partition. Better way is to do via some VirtualBox.
