Acronis Destoyed Drive Partition Causing the Loss of All Data
I installed the software, tried to run a backup, didn't work. Running through the wizard trying to create a "safe zone" automatically rebooted my computer and began to resize the partition. This failed misuarblely, earased the entire partition including the boot sector. So basically I just payed for software that earases everything on your harddrive and leaves you with a nice black screen saying no OS found. The icing on the cake is that Acronis want's me to pay for a technical support package so I can tell them how much their software ****.

Hello Chris,
Thank you for using Acronis Products
In order to solve the issue please repair the MBR (Master Boot Record) of the hard disk. Boot from Installation Disc (CD) into Recovery Console and run "fixmbr" command.
If you experience problems using the above solution, then please download special Acronis utility here. Use it to create a floppy and boot the machine from the floppy.
If you prefer to a fix MBR using a CD, then please download special Acronis utility here. Use it to create a CD and boot the machine from the CD.
The MBR will be rewritten once you boot the computer from the created media and confirm that you want to fix the MBR.
