Yes John, that's exactly what I did. But even with this rescue disk, TI 2009 still couldn't recognize the external drive to which it had written...
See John, this is the first time that anyone has told me how to actually do a test of the restore environment. What you say makes sense, and it is...
John, it so happens that's exactly what I ended up doing, as documented in a thread I started on 25 March entitled "Problem Doing Restore from...
That's another mistake I made, not finding this forum in time. But I went a couple of years doing two weekly backups and validations.......each...
Well, kudos to you for purchasing the extra hard drive and going through all those extra steps to ensure that you minimized the risk associated...
Kudos, John. You obviously sense the frustration of users like me, while concurrently understanding TI well enough to know how to solve these...
We are getting off subject here, but I'll bite. I have a $35k truck that has never failed me, so does that prove I know how to buy/drive vehicles...
Well, this dialog could go on forever, so I will concede the fact that I should have done a test restore using the TI boot CD. Even though I never...
I ran it in Windows so that I could take advantage of the automatic scheduling feature of TI. In auto mode, I did a weekly backup to both an...
I consider myself a computer person - certainly not as knowledgeable as posters like you, Mudcrab, GroverH, et al - but I use many applications...
Thanks again for a thorough explanation of what goes on in the wacky world of Acronis. Only this time I got a little confused as to whether you...
Just curious has to why Acronis must send us bootable discs or make us download later versions of the program JUST to make ATI work like it...
I agree with all your points except number 1. The expertise lies with the forum members, not the incompetent and non-caring Acronis support...
No. I am now backing up only using the capability provided by Vista Ultimate. I still have most of my older TI 10 backup images scattered around,...
I totally agree that one shouldn't have to use third-party software to get TI to work. Nor should one have to download and later purchase the next...
Thanks for the excellent explanation. I now better understand what goes on in the wacky world of Acronis. However, I'm still a little bitter at...
Brian, am I missing something here? If I create/validate a backup image on Monday, and then on Tuesday I need to do a restore from that...
Just to let you know, because I knew the suspense was killing many of you (lol)........with further help from MudCrab, my sick computer is now...
Thanks for all the good info GroverH. I will admit that I had better luck with TI 2009, since TI 10 didn't work at all. But my feeling is that if...
I think we can close this thread, which I started after my external UBS drive problems were solved but yet I still couldn't do a TI restore. A...
I think we can close this thread, and a sincere thanks to everyone who helped me......especially MudCrab, who went beyond the call of duty, and...
Grover, you may be correct, but I didn't know I had to include the second partition in my backup. I almost did, but since it was "empty" I decided...
I agree that your suggested thread is probably the best one to use. My initial problem was trying to get TI to recognize my external UBS drive...
I did check the NTFS checkbox. There is no dialog to follow and here is no progress bar. The system hangs up and must eventually be powered down....
MudCrab, how I wish the program was working correctly at that point. I think you meant to say the program is NOT working correctly when that...
