Create partition to restore Winclone image on boot camp 4.0

Hi everyone,

I cloned the Windows partition using Winclone in order to make this partition larger. In the meanwhile, I upgraded to Lion.

Now when I try to create a partition with Boot Camp 4.0 to restore the winclone image I have, Boot Camp asks me for the Windows 7 cd...

I didn't bring with me the cd nor the Windows 7 installer image: all I have is the Winclone image.

How can I create a partition and restore the Winclone image?

I spent hours looking on the web and trying different things without success.

Thank you so much for your help

You can't without the DVD.

Also, for future reference... do not use WinClone for expanding or contracting a boot camp partition. Instead use CampTune from Paragon software which is designed specifically for that purpose.

I'm pretty sure I left the Windows image with all my files that are part of the Winclone image.

Is there a way to open that up and find my Windows 7 image?

Thanks for helping!!

Like I said above, you're going to need your Windows 7 DVD. If you hadn't upgraded to Lion the WinClone image could easily be restored. There is no way to extract Windows 7 from the WinClone image.
