Many Problems with ATI 11 for new install

So far a very mixed experience - This is the most current release 8053 under 32 bit Vista Home Professional.
Creating A Backup Location hangs the application after a directory location is selected, Try and Decide gives a device driver error and System Backup hangs at 47%. I have reinstalled twice now.

However a My computer backup and restore works fine both to file location and secure zome but despite having succeeded I still get the warning "No backups have been created yet". Is this just my bad luck or does only about 20% of the program work (admittedly the function that does work is the most important).
Not being able to talk to support (without paying for it) does not help and is really not acceptable for initial installation issues. There is no error code with the hang on Creating a Backup Location. I have downloaded SnapAPI.337_s_e.msi and installed it but still no joy. Can anyone advise

 

Having no experience with Vista I perhaps should not comment. However, running WinXP, SP2, I see the same “No backups have been created yet” warning and the colored bar is yellow. I suspect that you are running the full backup task manually. If that is true try scheduling a task to run automatically at a specific time. For me when doing this the task reported that it was successful and the silly bar turned green. Acronis has a bit of work to do with version 11.
Edit:
Myself and others in this forum have found that scheduling tasks to run automatically they may run or they may not. Sometimes they may only run once.
