TIH2011 Recovery Disk Hangs

Thread needs solution

After selecting to run "Full Version" on the recovery media CD, I get the blue logo for a second then the monitor goes black. Any ideas?
I cleared "quite" and still don't see anything.
This is an old PentiumD rig on Windows XP.
Thanks!

You either have a problem with your recovery CD, or there is a driver issue on the recovery CD. To determine which, try to run the recovery CD on another computer. If it works, then you know this is a driver issue.
Since the computer is running XP, you could try to produce a BartPE-based recovery CD.

Yeah, it works on my newer PC. I did see some posts about BartPE, but how does that work? It know BartPE will create a bootable CD, but where do I get the Acronis components to add to it?

Yes, thank you. I found the plug-in in the meantime and it's in the process of recovering now. The BartPE in Safe Mode is exactly what I needed. Thanks again!
