0000007B error when restoring SATA partition to IDE drive

Backed up a partition with TI 9.1 from a SATA drive on a dell desktop, restored to an IDE drive on another dell desktop, reboot, get the XP logo then quickly the blue-screen with this error.

I'm pretty sure I know why it happens (no IDE drivers in the existing XP install loaded since the install was on a SATA drive?), but was wondering if anyone knows if this kind of restore is possible, and if so how to do it/get around this error?

Thanx,

-Tony

 

You'll probably have to either buy Universal Restore and use that or boot from the XP cd and do a Repair Install.

There is probably other hardware that is different between the computers than the SATA/IDE difference.

 

Hello decentrix,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Corporate Disk Backup Software.

For instructions on transferring your operating system from IDE to SATA hard drives (or vice versa), please take a look at this article.

Also this post can be useful.

Please be aware that if other hardware is different as well, the result may still be unbootable. In that case using Acronis Universal Restore will let you reach your goal. Please notice that Acronis Universal Restore is an add-on for corporate versions of Acronis True Image and license for it has to be purchased separately.

You can find the detailed instructions on how to use Acronis True Image in the respective User's Guide.

Thank you.
