Specify restore settings for drive c
I am trying to do a full system restore, when I get to Specify restore settings for drive c only the New Location tab is highlighted and the Cancel button is highlighted. I do not wish to change any settings when I click on New location system beeps and locks up, I have to power off the system. I have tried several times because I thought I did something wrong. So far no success. What am I doing wrong. I am booting using the rescue disk. I have XP sp3 on the computer using a SATA drive.

Thank you all for your advice but the thing is when I get to Specify restore settings for drive c if I select anything even cancel this system locks up. What I have been doing is alternating between Acronis and Norton Ghost I was able to do a full restore using Norton Ghost but it was 50 plus days old, once I got the system up I was able to run Acronis (it was latest backup only a few days old ) from the pc not using the rescue disk and I was able to do a full restore I don't understand why I was able to do a full restore once the system was up as opposed to running Acronis from the rescue cd
Thanks again for all your help

I would definitely try an alternate Rescue CD just to see if that works. If this is 2011, I would open a support ticket regarding your inability to work from the CD.
