Thanks for the replies - I will follow up that link, but for now I managed to find out that hitting the f8 key a lot got me to the 'proper' vista...
I got the MBR fixed yesterday when my friend finally remembered to get be a Vista Disk, and now I can start my laptop once again. So ... I've...
Thanks, Mudcrab, however the point I was hoping to make was that surely Acronis know enough about this problem and the fact that many of us do not...
I have finally had my mbr restored, so now I am wondering whether to persist with OSS or try something else. What would be the best steps to...
May we have a similar instruction that does work for Vista, please ?
The only difference between booting from CD and booting from hard drive is the sound of the drive itself, the end result is the same. Pressing f6...
Unfortunately (you know how it is) for some reason, I decided to reboot just to see whether things had magically sorted themselves out. Now all I...
Now I'm confused - I booted up the machine again to find out the build (2,160 by the way) only this time I reacted a bit quicker to the 'press f6...

Works fine for me - backup location rule set to maximum of 15 files, chose full backup after 6 differentials, I therefore get a full backup every...
That's OK, although someone else will have to answer that question, as it's not something I have attempted myself. I did see a thread a while ago...
If you set up a 'backup location' this sort of thing is handled automatically, I have a location set up with a rule to store a maximum of 15...
Glad to be of help - funnily enough I'm only 6 miles from Lincoln as the crow flies ...
You should see .dbx files corresponding to each folder which you normally see in Outlook Express, I would choose 'view details' from the menu at...
I would imagine that it's quite simply a case of when you click on the backed-up file, Outlook Express starts, but will be looking at your 'real'...
