Acronis True Image 10 = 52Min's for 3GB

Once again I'm back with another AMAZING problem ? ?

My System:
Asus P5E3 Deluxe
Quad Core 6600
2GB Ram
Sata 300GB with 3 partitions each 40GB
Extr. HDD 60GB Maxtor USB 2.0
Windows XP Pro
Acronis 10 Build 4.942 S

SO now new problem:
After 3 days of trying to contact Acronis,
via Email & a 0900 Tel.Nr. =0.62Euro cents per minute
and having NO luck what so ever in restoring my system!

I redid the whole thing at a minimum, XP, Hardware drivers, bla bla bla,
and i decided, this I'll do the backup from the CD (NOT IN WINDOWS),
THIS very very wierd,
52 Minutes for a backup
hmmmm,
SAY WHAT ?? ??
it gets better
1Hour and 32Minutes if it is to check the structure after.

Now either I am doing something wrong (which could be possible 5% chance)
or my Bios needs to be set differently (doubt it, but possible),
or I spend my hard earn money for a software that is still in it's baby shoes
(not sure yet).

Oh in my version there are 3 options from CD:
1. with usb drivers -LOL which does NOT find my 300GB HDD
2. without usb drivers and FINDS both 300GB HDD & 60GB Ext. HDD ??
3. windows

I really hope that someone smart out there has a solution

Greetings to all that give help & there know how to support others,
A BIG THANKS TO THEM.

 

Acronis seems to have problems with the newer hardware, which yours certainly is. One thing to try is to build a BartPE cd and include in it the True Image Plug-in.

 

Hello Priest,

The Linux environment for the Recovery CD obviously doesn't support your hardware well.

The options are:

1. Use Windows and Windows drivers by building a Bart PE disk with the Acronis TI plug-in.

2. Trying the trial version of TrueImage 11 to see if it has better support.

3. Seeing if Acronis Tech Support can provide a special recovery CD ISO image with better support.
