problem with the cd boot

I have to restore my image from windows it is not possible to enter,
then start from the boot cd acronis, but after having loaded the logo
it doesn't load anything: screened black. I have tried to create the boot on floppy but I have the same identical problem.
How can I do? I am desperate
My pc is a compaq presario 714 with xp professional

Thanks in advance

 

Try unplugging any usb devices such as media reader and see if that helps..
That's the only way I can get the boot cd to load..

 

an external cd on usb?

Yes..

 

Andrew thanks really for the help. Yes, use the last version of true image.

Following this indication: "Please boot your computer from the Acronis True Image rescue disc (the full version) and press F11 key when the "Starting Acronis Loader..." message appears. After you get the "Linux kernel command line" prompt, please modify it in the following way:

quiet acpi=off noapic

and click on the OK button."
all has perfectly worked. I am very happy. thanks so much!

P.S. How this procedure I can make automatic, do I have to send you a private message?

Regards,
iruam
