Backup of a partition completes succesfully.

Validation of the archive: corrupt archive
Destination of the archive: another disk or the same disk, all the same

What is it??

Are you using the latest build of presumably, TI9, which is build 3666? if not, upgrade.

Is your destination drive an internal drive? If not, try making the backup in another partition on an internal drive.

Does this happen when you validate in Windows or the Rescue CD version of TI, or both?

See if your problem is hardware related by doing the following:

Run chkdsk X: /r on your source and destination partitions. Substitute the drive letter of the partition being tested for X. Will want to reboot to do C.

Run a free memory diagnostic like Memtest86+, www.memtest.org, for several passes, overnight is best.

Memory diagnostic programs don't run in exactly the same environment as you normally run so if you don't find any memory errors reported try this: If you have more than one stick of memory in your PC and it will run on only 1, try running TI with each stick by itself. TI is known to give memory and disk systems a good workout.
