Is there anyone out there that has been able to upgrade the compact flash on the dx80 vmail. I have a customer that wants to upgtrade it to 1gb from the 64 meg card that is in it. I followed the instructions from Comdial but that was like following a bull through the woods. A quick call to Comdial tech (non)support only to reveal that they dont support upgrades on the flash cards. Kinda funny as it is in the manual and directs you to where to go. I am trying to use Norton Ghost with a Pny single compact flash reader. The Ghost doesnt see the reader when the Ghost boot disk is created to Ghost the card. Any help would be appreciated. I did try to use windows to drag and drop the files but it would not boot when put in the voicemail

Telcom you are correct in using the Norton Ghost. The only way to accomplish this is to buy two "Compact Flash PC Card Adapter". Mine are SanDisk brand. And you can only use these adapaters and Ghost on a non-NT operating system (Windows 98 or ME) laptop with the PC card slots. Each PC card will be assigned a drive letter as these are "removable disks" to Windows and you will be able to clone the source disk to your new flash card. I usually only use the 256K flash cards, but with 1 gig they will have room into the 23rd century. The reason you can't just copy the files from one card to another thru Windows Explorer is that the "MBR" (Master Boot Record) is not present on the new card, thus the only route is to clone the drive. I played with this for 2 days to figure it out and it almost drove me nuckin futs. Let me know if ya have questions, shoot me an e-mail.
