    Installing True Image 11 Build 8053 over 8027 on my Win XP Pro SP2 system stalls/hangs/won't finish.

    I am left with the "Installing Acronis True Image" window with the the messages "Acronis True Image Home is being installed" and "Please wait". The progress bar shows that installation is (near) complete but only the Cancel button is highlighted. It stays this way until I shut down and restart at which point the new build starts or until I terminate it using the task manager. BUT is the installation really complete? Will I have problems?

    Oh, yes, cancelling the installation does nothing. Tgerminating it with Task manager works.

    I really don't relish the idea of doing an uninstall and then a reinstall. I certainly don't want to do a manual uninstall.

    I only upgraded because build 8027 was giving me restore problems. Whatever reinstallation I do now I will have to redo once I am finally able to restore an archived partition.

    Can anyone from Acronis advise? Thanks.

    Addendum:The installation obviously didn't complete. True Image started OK but I am now left with a stalled "Welcome to the Restore Data Wizard" window after terminating the installation with the Task Manager. I'd back up to an earlier image of the C drive but restore wasn't working. (I will ask about that in a different thread.)
