PLEASE help a beginner

Hi,

I thought I was doing the right thing by getting the highly recommended True Image 10 but I think I have a problem.

I installed it last night and tried to do a backup to a 320GB external USB 2.0 drive. All True Image listed as drives to backup was the 320GB disk!!!

I have 2 120GB SATA drives and 1 60GB IDE drive - neither of which appeared as drives I could back up?? Why? I can see them in windows Explorer?!??!

Thanks,
Mark

 

I would try -

1) Uninstalling TI and re-installing.

2) If that doesn't solve the problem search the TI10 posts for the link to the updated drivers for TI 10.

I don't have 10, but are you absolutely sure, you weren't looking on the new backup folder, in error?

What happens if you have just the SATA drives connected (if this is possible)

What motherboard are you using, there have been reprots here that TI10 has problems with the new I965 chipsets.
