Disk Director 11 Build # 216 and True Image Home 11 Build # 8101 Do Not Peacefully Co-exist
I downloaded the demo of Disk Director 11 Build 216. I installed it and noticed one major problem. With DD 11 B 216 installed, True Image Home 11 Build 8101 no longer functions properly. The part that scans for partitions when True Image loads never runs. Thus, it never detects any partitions to back up or to select a back up from. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling TI, but, to no avail. I tried uninstalling DD, but uninstalling DD does no good as it created a BSOD on my machine. I had to use the recovery mode and restore a restore point where DD never was installed and TI was still installed.
One other problem I had was with the bootable rescue media. When it tries to boot, it fails returning an error that it cannot execute the ramdisk, so, nothing happens after that point.
Wish I had other things to note like the BSOD info that was returned on the screen. I didn't write it down, though.
Thought you might want to know the problem with this older version of TI. Unfortunately, I cannot update to a newer version of TI because I tried the downloadable demos of TI 2009 and 2010 and couldn't get the bootable rescue media to recognize any of my external USB drives. Either they'd never show up like they did in TI 2009 or they would show up for a few days and then disappear like they did in TI 2010.
