Hello staarit,

Thank you for choosing Acronis True Image (http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/).

We are really sorry for the inconveniences.

Could you please clarify in details what you are trying to do? Are you restoring the image to another server? Please make sure you have created and restored the image of the whole drive.

Thank you.

Hello staarit,

Have you created and restored the image of the whole drive? What is happening after you restore the image and reboot the computer?

Thank you.

the server tries to boot but it hangs with a blinking cursor no error messages at all

 

Hello staarit,

Please make sure you have your hard disk installed in BIOS as your first boot device. If it doesn't help please try to fix MBR in the way described at https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=55317

Thank you.
