Can FOG be installed on a Windows machine and used to backup the HDD to and external HDD?

in simple terms: no. that’s not what fog is for.

It sounds like you want CloneZilla for local imaging

Just burn a live iso onto a cd or usb and boot into it on your computer.

Thank you both. I was told that it would but after going through the manual it was clear that it would not. I just wanted to verify before having a come to Jesus talk with the fellow.

If he was reffering to the windows storage node, he is partly correct. While FOG is not installed on the windows server, the windows server can be used as a storage node. You will need to set up a few things for nfs and ftp to communicate correctly but using windows as a storage node is possible. BUT FOG on windows is not possible at this time.
