Restore: New harddisk not shown in target drive selection

Thread needs solution

After having backed up the old hard disk of my Fujitsu Siemens Laptop and changed the old hard disk with a brand new Sandisk SSD hard disk of the same size as the old one (120 GB), Acronis True Image Home 2012 starts correctly from the Recovery CD-ROM. But in the selection pane for the new target disk only appears C:\, i.e. I don't see any possibility to choose my new SSD hard disk to address as the target. The BIOS correctly shows the new SSD (Type: Auto , i.e. the BIOS auto-types the drive on boot time; this setting cannot be changed when trying to). How to proceed here?

Problem resolved: In this case, one has to go firstly through the "Add disk drive" menu of Acronis True Image Home 2012 and add the new internal disk. Than it is recognized by the program and eligible in the recovery target pane.
