Acronis True Image 8 Rescue CD + Windows 7 compatibility
Hello all. I'm wondering if anyone has tried to image a Windows 7 (Ultimate, 64-bit - not sure if this makes a difference based on my question) machine using an Acronis True Image 8 Rescue CD? I settled on the last version of ATI 8 and made a rescue CD off of that version, which has worked just about flawlessly on all of my Windows XP machines. I dare say that out of nearly 2 dozen images created and restored using that rescue CD, I have yet to come across a failed restore.
I am thinking about finally making the plunge to Windows 7 on a new machine and am wondering if anyone has tried using the rescue CD version of ATI 8 on any new (year 2010) models successfully.
I plan on making a disk image of the new machine straight out of the box before attempting to use and install anything else on it. While I realize most new machines do come with their own restore CDs/DVDs, I am hesitant to rely on one form of backup (i.e. what if the restore disc is corrupted or damaged).
I am also hoping to avoid having to directly install ATI directly on the laptop, preferring to work strictly off of the rescue CD.
Any gotchas or problems encountered using this combination?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!
