Hi all,

I have a problem with EWF & Compact Flash. It seems that it can't be
created, as you can see in the logfile.
Please can someone help my to solve this problem.

The image works fine but after some time I get an error about "out of
virtual memory". I don't know what caused this error. Can someone
explain to my what caused this error and how to solve it.

the configuration of EWF I'm set:

Maximum Number of Protected Volumes : 1
Maximum Number of Overlay Levels : 1
EWF Partition Size in KBytes : 0

Protected Volume # 1
Start EWF Enabled : Unchecked
Enable Lazy Write : Unchecked
Disk Number : 0
Partition Number : 1
Disk Type : IDE
Overlay Type : RAM
Optimization Option : Optimal Peformance

This is a part of my FBA logfile:

12:35:07 PM - ConfigureEwf() Start.

12:35:07 PM - Getting EWF config parameters from registry.

12:35:07 PM - Non El Torito disk configuration.

12:35:07 PM - EWF Partition Size = 0 (KBytes), Levels = 1, Volumes =
1.

12:35:07 PM - Protected Volume Config #0 :

12:35:07 PM - Disk= 0,Part= 1,DiskType= IDE,Type= RAM.

12:35:08 PM - Enable= Disabled, Optimize= 0, LazyWrite= N.

12:35:08 PM - Found 1 Hard Disks.

12:35:08 PM - Deleting EWF Partition #0, disk#=0, type=69

12:35:08 PM - Disk #0 layout info:

12:35:08 PM - PRIMARY partition,start=0x0000000000004000,
len=0x000000000dbfc000, type= 6

12:35:08 PM - FREE partition,start=0x000000000dc00000,
len=0x0000000001c80000, type= 0

12:35:08 PM - Allocating EWF in PRIMARY partition,
start=0x000000000dc00000, len=0x0000000000008000.

12:35:10 PM - Created EWF partition on Disk = 0, partition = 0,size =
0x0000000000008000 .

12:35:10 PM - Can't create EWF partition on disk0/partition0.

12:35:10 PM - ConfigureEwf() End, status = 0x0.


Thanks in advance,

Giggsy
