Error during Clone of Hard Drive with True Image Home 11
When I try to clone my Hard Drive (3 partitions) to an External USB Drive (WD5000AK) within the first 5 minutes it fails with this message:
Error - partition configuration has changed
I have cloned the disk successfully before, and could not find any info on this msg in the support forums. I have created a report.txt and NFO files but cannot find an email to send them to. I am using WinXP SP3 and Acronis® True Image Home® version 11.0 (build 8,053)
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Grover, but perhaps I was not clear in describing my problem.
I was trying to make a backup copy of my HARD drive to the USB External drive. I am not sure what you meant when you said "Insert the source into the external drive...".
But no worries...my problem is solved by using Spinrite to scrub my hard disk. I guess it was able to resurrect some bad data, because after Spinrite ended and I rebooted, I was able to use Acronis Home 11 to clone all 3 partitions on my Hard Drive to the USB Drive.
Way to go, Steve Gibson (of Spinrite).
