I have Win 2 k sp4 installed on an MSI motherboard weith Nvidia Raid.

I want to install a second and third version of the OS on two addidional Partitions. I can NOT do a regular install process via CD as it screws up the exisiting RAID. What I was hoping to be able to do is to mahe a backupof the boot partition via TI9 & then Recover tehm to the new partitons.

But what happens after doing that is that Acronis OSS does not recognize the new OS's. I asume I need to change something in eiother the boot.ini or the MBR or maybee both so that they will run.

Can anyone walk me thru this?

Hello Selkov,

Thank you for using Acronis Disk Management Software (http://www.acronis.com/enterprise/products/diskdirectorsuite/)

If OS Selector does not recognize your Operating Systems to initialize them you should edit only boot.ini file and nothing more. You can learn more about boot.ini file from here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot.ini).

Thank you
