But should I really have to do that?? Why should I have to do all that additional work, just because the software isn't solid and trustworthy?...
That's pretty much the procedure that I recommended, but then later found to not be 100% reliable when I found that validation failed even when...
In terms of where to go from here, I am not sure. I can trace my backup "roots" all the way back to Fastback, circa 1986. In the 1990s, I worked...
Back to the main thrust of this thread. I unfortunately just had a backup made to one of my internal drives fail to validate ("corrupt"). Thus,...
Many of you are chasing ghosts if you are wasting time running Memtest86, looking at chipset and motherboard problems, etc. As I posted in my...
I started that thread referred to in the original post in this topic. I have downloaded TI11 and was ready to begin testing today, but after...
One person asked if I could describe the one cable that provides "OK" rather than "corrupt" validations. I measured it, and it is about 6 feet...
In re-reading my post, I see now that I needed to be more explicit about the issue with the cables. What I was trying to say, but didn't say...
Re: Some progress to report: Corrupt/Can't Verify Corrupt Archives OK, I'm getting close to understanding the nature of this problem. I am quite...
Well, I tried "normal" compression, but that resulted in a corrupt file. So much for that idea. Good idea. While I don't like the two-step nature...
Here's a small amount of additional information: I did an image backup directly to my one Firewire/1394 drive (the one that, when I copied...
Yeah, I'm compulsive. But once you get beyond my personality disorder, you'll find that the reason I'm doing this is: 1. This is otherwise a...
I have every permutation possible, and they all have problems: 1. I have three computers, all running the same (latest) version of True Image...
That would be true if it weren't for the fact that these backup files came from three different computers. They are all completely different...
Thanks, I'll have to look into that. Technically, you are correct, but that definition is cold comfort when your computer is dead and you're...
I copied the archive from one of my ten external USB drives to my one and only external Firewire drive. That drive is also the only drive that is...
If you search this forum for the word "corrupt," you will get 1,000 hits (the maximum allowed by the search function). Trueimage is clearly the...
Further update: I have now found that this problem is repeatable on a completely different computer. Also, in troubleshooting the problem, I...
For those reading this thread, I am still working with tech support on this problem. We have found that when booting from a True Image rescue CD,...
The steps are very simple: 1. Start a Files and Folders backup. 2. Select "My Documents". 3. Within the My Documents folder, unselect "My...
I am doing a "Files and Folders" backup (i.e., NOT an image backup). I want to backup the "My Documents" folder, but I do NOT want to include two...
1. I create a new task and run that task. 2. Later, I want to edit that task, but the external drive to which I stored the TIB file is offline,...
I have an image backup on three TIB files stored on a single DVD, in a single folder. I have tried to plug the image by pointing to the first TIB...
I am evaluating True Image 9.0 and downloaded the demo yesterday. I have the same problems reported in this thread, and the sysop workaround does...
