Default Did I do this correctly??

ATI Home 2009

First, clicked on "One-click protection" and after that finished, check my external drive and found folder "mybackup.tib" with 14 gigs. Then went to "create bootable rescue media", and that was it. I never did get the chance to validate either procedures.

Is this the right way to do it in case of catastrophy?

I never use One-click restore and it is possible that it doesn't give you the opportunity to specify a validate to occur after the archive is created as you can do when creating an image or a data backup.

What you should do now is boot up your PC with the TI rescue CD you made and validate the archive using it. If it doesn't run or declares the archive corrupt then we'll have to address that.

You may have to change your boot order in BIOS so the CD is the first boot device in the chain.

Thanks for addressing this issue. I don't what to click on... There are two options "Windows" and "Acronis". Which do I click on? Also, say that the boot cd is good-- is there some way to validate the .tib file on the external drive?

Try each one. Then you can see which one gives you what you desire.

Seekforever has already explained what to do.
