Backup Sys. State Takes Forever to Finish/Cancel

Well, the topic title says it all.

I have the latest Russian released build of TI 11 (8059).
Hard drive is in SATA AHCI mode.
Mobo: Asus P5B Deluxe/WiFi.
System: Vista 32 Ultimate.

Full drive backups run fine.
But if the Backup System State task starts, it loads the processor (Core 2 Duo 6600) 90% - 100% doing nothing at the same time.
Pressing 'Cancel' in the main window or from the taskbar (there are so many 'cancel' options, by the way, - one is grayed out after pressing once, the others allow you to cancel a task as many times as you want - what a mess) has no effect either.
PS: Backups are configured to be saved to Security Zone, which is located an another phisical drive (SATA too), if it's important to know.

 

Hello Dmitry_N,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software.

Please try lowering the task priority in application settings.

Thanks a lot!
Will do accordingly at home tonight and, if the problem persists, will report as instructed.
PS: I have a slight guess that, yes, TI 11 fails to replace the old drivers from 10 during installation... At least, I hope that this is the issue!

 

Well, to just update you on my problem described here:
NO solution has been found so far.
Vista re-installed from scratch - problem remains exactly the same.
I didn't use the tracing version of the driver, as I was a bit too lazy to beta-test TI after I had bought it.
By the way, I tried applying for a beta tester last year, before TI 11 was released, and was told that you had enough of beta testers.
I think you should have said: "enough of beta testers who don't have to pay for testing"

 

Well, it's been a while, and no new build seems to have come out!

 

Three more months have passed... Vista SP1 is out. Still no solution!
What a disapointment!
I think I will finally have to try Paragon. Will report then.
