Cannot backup to non-NTFS
Hi,
I'm trying to use non-stop backup to protect the documents stored on my PC, and am getting the message "Cannot backup to non-NTFS partition" when I select my external USB drive as the target for the backup.
I've read knowledge base article 15261 which mentions issues with TrueCrypt and Win 7 64 bit, but I don't have TrueCrypt and am running Win7 32-bit.
I've reformatted the external drive (A lacie 750GB drive partitioned into 2 roughly equal NTFS drives) as NTFS just in case it helped but am still getting the same error.
If I choose another target drive - e.g. the C drive of my PC then True Image is happy to continue.
I'm using Acronis True Image Home 2011 update 1 (build 6696).
Any ideas folks?
Cheers
Will

Hi Anton,
Thanks for your help. I applied the low-level driver update and TI now recognises the drive as NTFS, and it's backing-up as I type this.
Thasnks and regards

No such luck with me... I have W7 64, eSATA drive, only have an issue with nonstop backup. Ran the low level driver app, added HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Acronis\Snapman: as subkey was not present, both options haven't worked. This updated 2011 has proven to be a real royal pain in the butt.

Thanks Anton, I have a fault report in (case no.01136785)...still waiting for a solution, as he keeps asking me to do what I already did above & refer to KB for a solution.
I tried to get the report, but wouldn't you know it "Acronis reporter has stopped working" see attached.
A challenge, I know!
