OK, thanks for the heads-up.
No compelling reason other than a desire to use later builds that should be more bug-free. On the face of it, looking at TI's (not very detailed)...
I see, thanks. Clearly a different situation. I've never had this problem spontaneously: only from a fresh TI image.
OK. Tom, just to be clear, are you saying that you had this problem prior to build 3677, and it was that build which resolved things? I'm using...
You're dead right! Have a glance at my most recent response to John, and you'll see that's functionally the same as the approach that has worked...
Re: "a disk read error occurred" on restore -- an Acronis stuff-up! I spoke too soon! Had a bit of time this arvo and couldn't resist trying ......
I hope so! In a day or two I'll try a backup and then restore onto bare-metal, secure in the knowledge that I know how to recover from disaster....
jmk94903: your suggestions stimulated me doing the following, which worked: 1. deleted all partitions 2. did a new fresh install of XP 3....
You'll have to make your own decision based on your trial and comparisons with other solutioins, but my experience with Acronis has been pretty...
Yes, I did see similar references, but I think it's unlikely in my case. The BIOS is the newest available, and the problem seems to amazingly...
1 Primary active (NTFS) partition (c:\). 1 extended partition with 1 Logical NTFS partition (d:\, my 'data' drive). XP SP2, clean installed quite...
Sorry, I misdescribed slightly. The *restore* succeeded. I'm talking about what happens when I then try to boot into the restored system. The...
Interesting what you say about procexp's network contacts. I knew no good would come of Microsoft buying Sysinternals ... Anyway, you could try...
Try dowloading procexp here. It's just an .exe, no installation required, and will enable you to search for processes that have open handles to...
Using TrueImage Home 9, I've tried restoring a variety of Win XP (SP2) active partitions, and every time, in whatever configuration I use, I get...
Happy to help.
I back up a drive with a couple of junctions on it. Haven't had to restore any yet (and should have, but haven't, tried a test restore), but if I...
It's typically wierd of Microsoft to provide the junction facility in NTFS, which is incredibly useful, but no interface to use it. Sysinterals...
Have you considered using NTFS junctions instead of either shares or mapped drives? In case you don't know -- junctions are similar to unix soft...
Sounds like a great idea. You could always host it on SourceForge or one of the other free source code hosts. There are quite a few. And if anyone...
Actually I can't use the Security Zone as I back up to a network share, not a local drive. So I have to deal with deleting old backups manually....
How many incrementals is it safe to add to a full backup? Or to put it another way: is there any reason to do a new full backup rather than...
Which is what I want, or I'd end up backing up my backups ;) No problem.
I backed up the C: drive this morning, and the results look good. After backing up, I mounted the image (using 'explore image' in acronis) to Z:,...
What a great idea. I knew you could mount a drive under an NTFS folder, but didn't think of it in this context. And, yes, it worked! I have my...
Separate names with a comma.
