Hello Felo,

Thank you for finding time to open the thread regarding this issue, I will be glad to address it.

You will need to resize the backup you're restoring during the recovery process. You can find the detailed instructions here.

Please note that according to the Acronis License Policy you will need one license for one computer your are going to backup or restore. In case you're restoring onto the dissimilar hardware, you will need to use Acronis Universal Restore. Acronis Universal Restore is a special add-on Acronis True Image that allows you to restore your images to dissimilar hardware. Currently Acronis Universal Restore is available only for Acronis True Image Home 2011 version, which is fully compatible with the backups, created by 2009 version.

Should you need anything else or have any further questions - feel free to contact us at your earliest convenience, we will be happy to help you!
