Enabling Startup Recovery prevents Windows from booting (TI 11)

Hello,

When I activate Startup Recovery Manager, I am prompted to press F11 when the system starts. If I do, the Recovery Manager loads fine and quickly. If I do not, the system restarts and I enter in an endless restart loop (everytime the acronis message passes "press F11 etc...").

I had to boot on my bootable TI 11 CD, and from it remove the Secure Zone to remove the Startup Recovery Manager (just trying to do that does not work, you have to remove the SZ).

Then Windows boots again, and I was able to recreate the Secure Zone.

Startup Recovery Manager does not work for me (I have Vista x64, and a SATAII single HDD).

EDIT : request sent to support the September 19 via the website but no answer as of now

Well, that sort of thing happens sometime with initial releases of Acronis software. After a couple of more builds, it will probably work fine. In the meantime, just don't use the StartupManager.

 

Hello,

For now, that's indeed what I do since I cannot use it.
It's sad I can't use a feature which is not even "new", it
should therefore be stable since a long time. Startup Recovery Manager
is very convenient, it boots very fast, and you can insert you DVD
for instance without switching between boot CD and backup DVD.

Anyway, if one day I have news from the support, I'll tell you.
