Failure to Activate Acronis Bootable Agent

This is the log from a failed restore. I am trying to restore drive C: from a full backup on a USB hard drive. It does the verify of the backup then doesn't do the required reboot. How do I get this restore to work? This is Win XP Pro on which an upgrade to svc pak 3 got screwed up and now it won't go online. I'll be happy to provide any other information.

I have the same problem on one system. When trying to make a full restore, it just says "Failed to Activate Acronis Bootable Agent" and below it says "bootwiz.sys". And then of course it is unable to do a restore.

Acronis System Report is attached. Windows XP SP2 is used and ATIH 2009 #9646. The same thing happened with the english trial version on another system.

Btw. I searched on the whole disk for the bootwiz.sys, but it couldn't be found. Shouldn't it be somewhere on the system..?

I am still unable to download the latest build for the german version of ATIH 2009. Last time I was told in live chat, that the update is only available for the english version right now. I guess I still have to wait.
