    Hi,
    I want to use DRBL, from my USB key, on my new computer : (HP ENVY h8-1425) with a "AMD radeon HD7570" graphic card, 2To HDD, 16Go memory, i7 processor, Windows8Pro.
    But after starting DRBL (when it starts...), the system freezes just before launching the graphic environment (x-window).

    When I launch DRBL in "safe mode" I can see the prompt :
    "fb : conflicting fb hw usage radeondrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver"
    ...and nothing more happens. If I press On/Off button, it (sometimes) launches the closing procedure.

    How can I resolve this problem? I only want to make an image of my Hard drive.
    Thanks, (sorry for my faults in English.)
    Stéphane.

    If you just need to make "single" image of your hard drive,
    I would suggest to use Clonezilla Live CD without x-windows.

    Yes, i have tried but the problem is the same. No graphic interface ! The soft freezes when loading the graphic driver...

    So your purpose to use DRBL live is for Clonezilla SE?
    If so, try this mode (you need to install a Linux box first):
    http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-SE/use_clonezilla_live_in_drbl.php
    and use Clonezilla live 20140103-raring as client's OS.

    Steven.
