Not Enough Memory error when restoring an image ...
I am using Acronis True Image Personal version 8.0
I have been using it for some time to create images of the system drive on my small system (XP SP3). The primary system drive I am dealing with is 8 GB. My drive failed to boot recently, and it seems some windows drivers were corrupted, so I wanted to restore my most recent image.
I put the failed drive into an external USB exclosure and connected it to another machine running Acronis True Image PE 8.0, with the image on it's hard drive. (FWIW, I am able to read the failed drive perfectly, I just cannot boot it.)
I ran 'Restore Image' from True Image, pointed to the image file, chose 'verify image' and selected the target drive on the external USB disk. Everything was accepted, and it even deleted the partition on the external drive, but when it went to do the restore, it immediately terminated with a 'Not Enough Memory' error.
So now I am left with an unallocated disk, and an image, but I do not know how to restore the image to the disk.
Help?
Thank you.

Hi Ilya:
You are correct. I was trying to restore from within Windows. I assumed that would be OK, since 'Restore' was one of the 4 main options from the software, and the disk I was restoring was off on an external USB case. I had already created my own bootable rescue CD, so I thought I'd try that one before using the one you made available to me for download, and it worked like a charm. My old image was restored perfectly, and now my disk boots and runs again just like it used to.
Thank you very much for your help,
Ian
