InstantCake Reimage Question

[JohnB]

I need to reimage (recake?) a Seagate 250 from DVRugrade. I left the phone line connected and it loaded 3.5c. I have downloaded the new IC for 3.5c for the SAT-T60. The queston I have is this: does IC essentially fromat and then reimage a previously used drive? If so, then all should work correctly. If not, then it would appear that there might be problems because of the old files on the drive and the new files loaded by IC. I have never used IC before and have found no specific forum message that addresses reimaging a previously used drive. If I missed one, sorry.:confused:

Yes it does Richard. Thanks. That should make the process a piece of cake. I'll report back with the results.

I loaded IC this weekend and reimaged the drive. Everything went smooth as silk. Put it back in the TiVo, booted up and have full capacity. IC is a great product!!
