Editing Tasks Crashes ATI On Vista

Ever since I built my new computer, yes on a raid with ICH8R/ICH9R controller, Vista kills ATI when I try to edit a scheduled task. The event log shows this. Any ideas Acronis gurus?

Faulting application TrueImage.exe, version 11.0.0.8053, time stamp 0x47282d03, faulting module TrueImage.exe, version 11.0.0.8053, time stamp 0x47282d03, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x000a0f42, process id 0x16ac, application start time 0x01c8571d1bd04892.

I performed an ATI software repair with no cure of the problem. System state backup seems to work, but I have never been able to get an image created on my new box. ATI crashes. Must be the RAID thing that is being discussed in other threads. I have had great success with version 9,10 and 11 on my old XP box with ATA drives, but ever since I built this raid system with Vista, ATI 8053 seems to not work anymore. Looking seriously at using Robocopy for my backup solution.

 

Hello nhraj700,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup software

Please do the following:

# Reproduce the problem (application crash);
# Do not close the "Application has stopped working" window;
# Run Task Manager (press Ctrl-Shift-Esc);
# Go to "Processes" tab and right-click on the crashed process;
# Select the "Create Dump File" item;
# Pick the .DMP file created;
# Open Start->Run, type %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive string and hit Enter;
# After that you will see a folder (or a few folders), the name of which starts with "Report"
# Collect the Report.wer file from the last created folder.

Please also make a screen shot of the Device Tree application the way described in this previous post.

Then submit a request for technical support.

Attach all the collected files and information (please clarify if you're using Backup Location) to your request along with the step-by-step description of the actions taken before the problem appears and the link to this thread. We will investigate the problem and try to provide you with a solution.

Thank you.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the quick response. This problem is repeatable so I got to the step you indicated "# Select the "Create Dump File" item;"
and Vista tells me "The operation could not be completed. Access is denied. I am an Administrator on this logon so not sure what that is all about. Need further instructions.

Thanks,
Monte

 

Hello nhraj700,

Could you please clarify if you're using built-in "Administrator" profile? If so, could you please create a new profile with administrator rights and try to create dump file again using it?

Thank you.

Hi Michael,

Your dump method only works on a Vista "Super Administrator" account that I had to activate using the NET Administrator Activate:Yes command. See dump from Super Admin below. I also pinpointed that Acronis on the task edit only crashes once the "Backup Location" is created and specified in the task. If the backup location cannot be found as I discovered in the "Super Admin" account, the task can be edited. Because the Super Admin account had not been created until today, the backup location wasn't found yet, but once I created it and specified it in the task, it crashed hard.

Additionally, I don't have a \Driver\FtDisk branch, I only have a \Driver\Disk.

This is what I have from device tree.

In order to create a dump you need to be elevated. I guess you have UAC enabled?

1. Click the Start button, type "taskmgr", and press ctrl+shift+enter.
2. UAC will prompt you for Administrative rights, or to Continue.
3. Now create the dump.

Alternatively, load up task manager however you want and click the "Show processes from all users", this will also trigger the UAC elevation.

I am also suffering from this "Edit Task" crash. Any progress on pinning it down?

 

Hello nhraj700,

Could you please clarify, if Acronis Backup Location is created on a local drive, or on a network location?

Thank you.

It's on a NAS box whereas I am using a UNC for path.

 

Hello nhraj700,

Please be aware that the issue is already known by our Development team, and is currently being investigated. Most likely, it will be fixed in the next build of Acronis True Image 11 Home. We are sorry, but the exact time-frame isn't decided yet.

Thank you.
