ABOUT THE UIU & the New Version 4 

The Universal Imaging Utility (UIU) and its patented process, was the world's first (and remains the only) tool that works alongside any Windows cloning package, enabling you to create a single Hardware-Independent Image for any Vista, XP or Tablet computer. The result is an Image that works cleanly on all your Windows computers:

  • whether they're desktops or laptops
  • regardless of your imaging package (Symantec, Acronis, ZENWorks, etc.)
  • and regardless of manufacturer (HP, Lenovo, Gateway, Dell, Toshiba, and on and on). 

Binary Research brought you Ghost, the world's first and most popular disk-Imaging software.

We now invite you to discover the advantages of Big Bang LLC's patented Universal Imaging Utility.

As cloning software has evolved, the System Administrator's burden of creating, storing and maintaining multiple Image files has become increasingly difficult.  You are faced with the choice of juggling dozens of Images or doing extensive post-cloning configuration to get the computer to boot.

Today, unlike the 1990's, cloning is no longer a special feat. We feel that way about true hardware-independent imaging. An Image created on one Windows-based computer should work on any other, regardless of make or model, without you having to search for and archive a library of thousands of device drivers, create a sysprep file, program an XML answer file or perform IT magic to get your systems to work. 

The good news is that the UIU does all this for you! The result is an Image that works cleanly on all your Windows computers - whether they are desktops or laptops.

The UIU plays an integral role in reducing the growing burden on IT departments.  By simplifying the task of Image creation and deployment, personell are able to focus on more critical and strategic tasks.  Troubleshooting blue screens or tracking down missing plug-n-play IDs are not in that category.  Let the UIU, a simple, one-of-a-kind solution, handle that.

    UIU works by setting up your "master" computer so that the Image subsequently created from it (using your favorite cloning application) can be deployed smoothly and reliably to all your hardware platforms.  It is ideal for new Image-deployments, software and operating system upgrades, Windows security updates and new system builds, or Disaster Recovery situations.

    To ensure correct compatibility with most business-class desktops and laptops, Big Bang LLC has compiled software drivers for over 26,000 hardware components from brands such as Dell, HP, Gateway, Compaq, IBM, Sony, Toshiba, Panasonic, as well as hardware component manufacturers Intel, 3Com, VIA, nVidia, ATI, SoundMax, and many more.

    By incorporating UIU into your Imaging process you eliminate the problems typically associated with multi-platform cloning, such as rolling re-boots, error messages, blue screens on cloned machines, incompatible HAL's, or IDE controllers that don't work.

    Furthermore, it relieves you of the never-ending task of searching for and storing hundreds or thousands of device drivers that you need to make all your systems work.  The UIU includes the driver library, which is constantly being updated and kept current by Big Bang's development team, ensuring that your single Image works now and in the future.
