I have the same issue.  I tried for hours just about every recommendations found on trusted web sites. Then I decided to try something.  I created a Windows 7 (64-bit) System Repair disk from my Lenovo T410.  IT WORKS FINE ON THE DELL XPS 9100, even using the wired network as the source of the backup (I have a small NAS where I store the image). My T410 uses Windows 7 Ultimate (instead of Professional on the Dell), and has an Intel I7-620M (instead of I7-920 on the Dell), but this did have any impact. Hope this helps! -Patrick
I have a new Dell XPS 9000 and an Inspiron 1545 notebook. Both have windows 7 64 bit. When I create recovery disks using windows 7, and test them, they boot all the way, and then fail with an error code 0X4001100200001012. I am only seeing this behavior with the two new Dell's I've bought. I cheap HP desktop that I also have creates recovery disks that do not cause this error. My search of the Internet makes me believe that I am not alone in seeing this problem with Dells. I have used the windows scan feature to correct any OS file errors. Recommendations to slow down the CD burn to stop any corruption cannot be implemented when creating a recovery disk in widows. Since I have the OS disk, I can always boot from that in an emergency, but this is still somewhat annoying. Does anyone have any ideas about what the cause is? I tried microsoft tech support (they had no idea) and Dell tech support (they had less of an idea). Anyone seen this or know how to solve it.?
