Hi, I was talking about full-disk encryption like Tru-Crypt (rather than hard disk based systems that ask for passwords prior to booting).
Does this defeat Bitlocker? or Tru-Crypt?

Just tested on Vista. Works as advertised. Also worked on me e6500 with the hard drive ATA password set. Apparently, the password is asked for before the boot devices are offered, so the drive is already unlocked by the time you tell it to boot from CD. It didn't work with my Ubuntu install on a separate partition of the same machine however. -- Mike Gill -----Original Message----- From: Ken Schaefer [mailto:k...@adopenstatic.com] Sent: Sunday, April 26, 2009 8:05 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Spotted this a couple of days ago... The tool's website says you need to boot from the CD or Floppy disk. I suspect that type of tool is not going to get around Bitlocker-ed partitions, or other similar types of full-disk encryption.
