Bootable Media and Validation Failure
Here is the situation, which I have been asked to repeat having posted it previously in an ATI earlier version forum.
BOOT MEDIA VALIDATION FAILURE
- Create a backup image using the ATI 2016 Windows application.
- Create a backup image using an ATI 2016 Bootable Media CD.
- Validation of both .TIB files succeeds when using the Windows application.
- Validation of both .TIB files fails when using the Bootable Media CD.
- This problem is the same using a Windows 7 SP1 build, or a Windows 10 build on a completely different hardware platform.
Has anybody got any ideas regarding this issue?
It is likely to be a bug in the Bootable Media creation tool. How about a fix?
I have never encountered this problem with earlier versions of ATI, which I have been using for nigh on 15 years.

Stephen,
Thanks for posting here....As Steve S. recommends, a WinPE recovery media is the way to go.

My apologies to all! It's been quite a while since I looked at this Forum, mostly this is because I discovered (to my amazement!) that ATI Bootable Recovery Media (CD) will successfully validate and perform recovery reliably from an ATI created .TIB file.
I will take a look at the WinPE method as soon as I have the opportunity, so for the present, many thanks to both for taking time to look and advise.
