At the conclusion of a successful full restore, what should the last screen look like?
Hi. I have Acronis True Image Home 11. When Acronis has successfully completely a restoration of a disk image (restore a full backup), what should that last screen shot look like? I'm wondering what should I see on the screen to indicate that a successful restoration has been completed. Twice, the final screen I saw was a blue screen with the letters "EN" shown in the lower right corner. Once, the final screen look like I was in the recovery console (I'm not sure since I've never intentionally went there; it was a black screen with white letterings, with some wordings about recovery commands). The PC freezes at that point.
As far as I know, all 3 restorations were successful -- or so I think and hope. I just re-booted by holding down the power button (had no choice) and then turning the PC back on and everything seemed to work fine. I'm just seeking confirmation here since I haven't seen an Acronis screen that says something like "Operation is successfully completed", which is what I see on the screen each time a successful full backup is made (and what I would like to see after a successful restore).
Thanks...

Hello Anton -
I hope you're still there. After a while, I thought no one was going to reply to my question, so unfortunately I stopped checking on my question. Thanks for your reply.
In answer to your questions, I am (still) using Acronis True Image 11.0 Home, with build 8053. I restored the disk image using Windows (not with a bootable CD). The bootable CD I have and used to install the software originally, came with the boxed version of the software which I purchased at a brick and mortar store, but I did not use it to restore my disk image. I am running XP SP3. I'm still having the same issue as described in my original posting.
(Note: I recently tried to update to the latest build 8101. I downloaded the update from the Acronis website, installed the update, and re-booted my PC with no problem. However, when I ran the software, a window popped up that invited me to try out the newly installed TRIAL version of the software! So I went through the process again to be sure I downloaded the right update file. This time I even uninstalled the old build first. I got the same result. Opening the software only gave me an invitation to try out the just-installed trial version of the software. I could not get to the fully paid updated version that I thought I had just downloaded and installed. Fortunately, I was able to use restore point to get back my software with build 8053.)
Can you help?
Thanks...
