I have a HP computer that the harddisk was accidentally wiped clean. I can not get the computer to read the ABR recovery disk in CD or USB version (no drivers?).

I have removed the harddrive and attached to another machine using a SATA to USB cable. The drive is readable. I attempted a full restore and had to click through literally hundreds of restore errors.

I validated the TIB file used and it checks out OK.

What are the best practices for this type of restore

1) install SATA drive in computer via SATA. Errors may be from slow USB connection

2) should I reformat the drive prior to attempting the restore?

3) Will there be any permissions issues. The backup was created using a different User account than I am using for the restore.

Thanks so much!

Dave

Hello Dow!

Thank you for finding time to open the thread regarding this issue. I understand your concern, and will be glad to help you.

The best way to achieve your scenario is to

  1. Attach the target drive to any working system (via USB or SATA), go to Start -> Run -> cmd and issue the following command
    chkdsk /f /r
    This will ensure you that there are no faults with the drive
  2. Attach the target drive to the target machine via SATA (if you restore OS onto the hard drive attached via USB, the drive might not be bootable)
  3. Perform the restoration process

Should the issue remain, please gather Acronis Report alongside with the recovery log and submit a case with the information attached, and let us know its number.

Should you need anything else or have any further questions - feel free to contact us at your earliest convenience, we will be happy to help you!

Thank you!

Yana -

When the harddrive is installed in the HP computer, I can not read the CD, USB or Hardrive. The system gives a blinking screen just after BIOS and that is all I get. I restored the TIB backup to the drive using another computer and it will still not boot (still blinking cursor).

Next step?
