    I am using the 9.1 trial and a trial universal restore I got from a sales rep. The host server is a dell 2550 with raid, and the dest is a dell 2850 with raid also. the server restores and always BSOD. but the universal restore never gives me an option to load drivers. during the restore.
    on my rescue media I choose the icon that says universal restore full version..

    any thoughts or ideas? i'm not about to drop about a grand plus on software that just wont work.

    I am having the same issue. trying move teh entire disk image from Dell 1550 to Dell 1950. Windows 2000 with SP4 is the OS. I have the latest build of ATI9.1 and Universal Restore option. I just dont get the option to select Universal restore while booting from the Boot CD. Help...!!

    Same issue here as well. Windows 2003 Server (Standard Edition) using True Image Windows Server v9.1 (build 3,854) with Universal Restore for Windows Server.

    Fairly plain setup. Everything went as expected with the installation of TI and Universal Restore. The product on the server shows "Acronis True Image Server with Acronis Universal Restore" in the title bar when launched. The title bar when booting from the recovery CD shows the same -- so the UR installation seems right.

    I just never get prompted for drivers.

    Hello,

    I have also had this problem. Problem was the way the HDs are setup. With a dynamic (Softraid) disk you can`t restore in one way. This workaround helped for me:

    - restore the image (without the Universal Restore Option) to a basic disk. (do not reboot, as it won`t work)
    - make a new BackupImage of this disk.
    - finally restore this second Image. This time you should have the Universal Restore Option available.
    To me this helped after days of restoring/ backing up/ installing/ testing/ trying other setups/ formatting HDs in different ways etc...
    May be someone finds this useful.
    Best regards
    Olehemp

    The system I imaged does not have dynamic disks. The hardware RAID 1 has two partitions -- both partitions are "basic" with NTFS file system.
