Windows 2003 Reboot

So we purchased True Image for Windows servers and the universal restore option believing it did what it said on the tin.

We are trying to move a Windows installation from an IBM x346 to x226 server, so the hardware is quite well known and doesn't contain any bizarre, weird unknowns.

Performed a backup on the exisiting server, created a bootable CD-ROM and the restored box continually reboots as the GUI loads. We have tried this on different x226 servers so the specific hardware cannot be blamed.

Does the universal restore actually work? Am I doing something obviously wrong? The backup image has been verified by TI fine.
