    I am using TrueImage version 8 buil 937 on XP SP2
    After creating a image to the other partiton of my hard disk, I get a Imagefile corrupt message when I choose verify.
    Same procedure on my external USB disk works fine.
    Any suggestions?

    If XP, run chkdsk X: /r on the partition you are storing the image on. X represents the actual drive letter for the partition.

    Good idea to run it on all your partitions from time to time, particularly if you are having problems.

    Thanks for your reply.
    chkdsk e: /r showed no problems!
    An interesting thing is that explore Image works fine with the "corrupted: image.
    So I am lost...

    Hello rensovonk,

    Boot from the Acronis rescue CD and try verifying the image on your E: partition again.

    Regards

    Rensovonk:

    Check out this article from PcWorld: http://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,124161,00.asp

    It contains information that may help you.

    All I can say is that I too had a similar problem with an image using version 9. I then booted from my Acronis Rescue CD and tried to perform the restore (*without* verifying first - I had verified it after creation and it reported it good. I just went for broke!)

    The restore went perfectly and the entire partition restored correctly. This is an error message "error" - again see link above.

    Good luck.

    Ed

    The PC World article is referring to mis-reporting errors that existed in versions prior to 2323. It says "at press-time the current version is 2323". I'm not saying this couldn't be the problem but this was supposedly addressed prior to the current build of 2337.

    I did a image verification on my partition using the recovery CD: Image OK!
    So it looks like a bug in Acronis 8.0 as mentioned earlier.
    By the way: the same happened with Norton Ghost.
    But my problem is solved!
    Thanks for your advises
