Talk about heart failure.

So OS selector was installed and working on my machine with Win7 Ultimate and Win7 Enterprise. DD10 was never installed, only TIH 2010.

I installed DD11 and got the non system disk (or something similar to that) when it booted. I pressed any key and it started Win7 Ultimate. Called 911 back and told them to cancel the ambulance :-)

So, before I reboot the next time, what should I do? I chose OS Selector setup from the start menu thinking I needed to install the new version that came with DD11. But it's offering me all the options, Repair/Update, Uninstall, Activate, Deactivate, Restore Default Parameters.

Do I need to deactivate (although it's apparently not active given the prompt I got when booting) and uninstall/re-install?

Would a repair update the OSS drive with the new DD11 files? Then I would only need to activate it.

I installed the demo version, however, in my case it installed correctly the problem was the OS selector would not work it just booted straight into Windows 7. Tried all the options reinstall, repair etc, same result, if I cannot test it completely there is no way I will purchase it. As a side note the interface looks good when used with Windows XP, But compared to Vista and Windows 7, it looks very dated, the visuals of this component has not been updated from version 10 and looks like a rush job. After all this time I am very disappointed it does not work, it does not look good, by contrast I now use Mandriva 2010 (Linux) its boot loader looks very modern, I can boot Windows 7, Windows Vista and Mandriva Linux. Mandriva also has its own partition manager, which may be slightly slower but does do what I need it to, I also have another operating system that can access windows partitions as well. I have it installed on 3 computers and not just limited to 1 as does Acronis software restrict and all this for free.

Acronis, after many years of using your software which I found superior to others, I now find your business model seriously flawed as does your software, most software allows users to install on more than 1 computer and continue to update the visuals of their software. Acronis you need to take note as I will only be purchasing your software in future if it meets these requirements and of course works, instead of setting the standards your are falling behind others, times are hard if you want me to spend my hard earned cash you need to raise the bar.
