I agree with DwnNdrty about downloading the trial version of TI 2009. I recently tried to restore from TI 10 and it always hung up, but TI 2009...
Thanks........I feel like I rode the bull for the full 10 seconds. One of the reasons I wanted to retain Acronis as my backup software of choice...
Yes, it was finally a happy ending. And thanks for all your help John. I feel like I've made a lot of progress in the last few days, so for now...
The first time I did a normal reboot, and not a power down. In fact, what I did was to eject the TI 2009 CD, insert the TI 10 CD, and then close...
I have now successfully validated a backup image on both my internal and external drives on my Vista-32 computer. And I have used both the TI-10...
No offense taken, and you are absolutely correct. MY ERROR....PROBLEM SOLVED. Totally embarassed. Brain dead. Unlike my internal backup drive...
Very true. I just went into Folders/View options and unchecked the box to hide known extensions. So now all the backup image files show the .tib...
But TI2009 saw the TI-10 version a couple of weeks ago when the TI-10 rescue disk could not. That's how I was able to restore after my hard drive...
I have never created any TI2009 archives......only TI-10. But your 2nd question is a good point. No, the files don't have a .tib extension per...
Yes, I get those screens, but no .TIB files show up. Yet I know I have some on both my internal and external drives. So I decided to lay aside...
Good point, but I was careful to do that. Plus my drives have unique names so that I don't have to worry about the drive letters themselves.
Sorry for the confusion. What I was trying to say is that if I click on Start and then Computer using Vista, I can see all the TIB image files, so...
Many of you convinced me that I should test my restore capability at least to the point of validating my TI 10 backups (and maybe later an actual...
I am using the TI 2009 Trial rescue CD, but I guess it doesn't have my network drivers.......no big deal. This gigabit network........are we...
Yea, I forgot that was important.......in the morning.
That's smart........now why didn't I think of that? Because I'm not as smart as you when it comes to backups, and probably because my brain has...
Using TI 10 I can backup an image to an internal drive on a 2nd computer connected to my LAN. But when I try to restore from this drive, TI...
Good luck on the restore.........keep us posted. My experience has been that you will get the most help from members of this forum vs the...
But did you try a different burner? I've had problems with Nero, so I use a freeware program called Active @ISO Burner. Go here to download:...
I just read a Top-10 review of backup software for 2009. Migo PC Backup was rated #1, Acronis TI #3, and Norton Ghost #7. Of course, the review...
I forgot to ask.....which version of TI are you using. I had my problems with TI 10. Thanks.
Sounds like a bullet-proof method of backing up and restoring your TI images. Am I to assume that you also boot from the rescue disk when doing...
I'm a little confused here, John. If I restore a partition image to a new drive (because my old one crashed), what else must be done to now boot...
I should mention, however, that when I used the TI 10 rescue CD, I couldn't even see the partitions on my new drive. At least the 2009 Rescue CD...
Why do you think it is that Acronis has such trouble restoring from an external drive, be it USB or firewire? I suspect many people buy external...
