No backup of master drive possible
I use: Acronis True Image Home 10 Build 7.046
on: W7 Prof. x64
Problem:
If I try to backup the master drive where I placed the applications only including Windows 7 and all other system relevant folders, Acronis crashed. I can open the application but once I selected the master drive for backup procedure the software freezes for a couple of seconds after I pressed proceed. Then the message appears the the software does not function anymore correctly and must be closed. Backup of the slave drive where I store all the data is no problem, that works fine! When a fix is available I will be notified. After I press okay the software closes. OneClick Backup of Acronis does not work at all - the warning message appears immediately after I double clicked on the icon. The application never worked.
What have I done so far?
I uninstalled the package and re-installed it, but no success.
Who can help me to get the application up and running?

MIght I suggest using msconfig.exe to disable all non-micorsoft services and all startup prgrograms before uninstalling and reinstalling. This will help in some cases where you get runtime errors. Not a silver bullet but worth a try since it doesn't take much time to try.
info on msconfig can be found here:

It looks like I was able to fix the issue myself - from what I can say now it must have been an issue with the target drive. I used an SSD as target drive before but now swapped it into a normal 7200RPM SATA-HD. Since I did this Acronis runs as perfectly as one could expect this!
