Error Creating Rescue Disk

$

I am a new user of Reflect so bear with me if I make a few errors. I am using the Standaard Edition 32-Bit on my Windows Vista PC. I had no problem creating a rescue disk in that environment. Since I also have a Windows 7 64-Bit laptop, I thought I would test the free edition on that computer to determine if I wanted to purchase a second license. I could not create a rescue disk on the Windows 7 PC - it just hangs with the message "writing lead out". I know these forums are for registered products only, but unless I can find a solution to this issue, I certainly will not invest in another license. Thank you for any advice you may have.

Update!
I was able to create a rescue disk in Windows 7 by creating an iso file and burning it to disk. However, when I went to test it I was puzzeled why it did not show my local partitions. After reading more of the documentation I discovered that the Standard Edition does not support Dynamic partitions which is what I have on my Win 7 PC. You have to upgrade to the Professional Edition to get support for Dynamic partitions. Qh well, at least I learned a few things about Reflect and creating Rescue disks.

Although my issue is resolved by using a workaround (iso file), I am still bothered by the fact I could not burn a disk directly. Any comments are appreciated.
