    I run Acronis 11 latest update.
    I made a bootable cd and tried to see if it works.
    This is what i did.

    Changed bootdrive in bios to my dvd-player. The bootcd starts to boot. I tused full acronis or what it says.
    this is the screen after 5-10 minutes.

    Disabling IRQ20
    No raid disks
    Reading all physical volumes this may take a while
    /dev/sda:Read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0:unknown error 5

    Whats wrong?
    I´m very thankfull for your help
    I have my backup on a usb-drive
    I tried to ways. First I had it connected when the computer booted up and then I tried to connect it when the boot cd had started and you tuse what to do.
    I´m running xp-pro
    Could it have something to do with my memory? I have 4gb
    Kind regards

    Does it start without the USB drive?

    You can try following:
    At the point when you can choose 'fullbackup, etc', press F11-key.
    In the commandline put in command "quiet acpi=off noapic" (without quotes)
    Press OK button and choose 'fullbackup'.

    No it´s still the same errors
    There are many lines of the same/similar message.
    the difference is in the numbers.
    One line is 500 another 2000 and so on.

    OK, you just started without USB drive and the same error.

    It seems an internal HDD is not readable.

    How is your hdd equipment:
    - number of devices
    - how many partitions on every device
    - where is the hdd connected (IDE1/2 + master/slave, SATA1, SATA2,...)

    You can try to start Knoppix or the manufacturer-tool to check the hdd(s).
