Problems with restoring system
Hi
I have been trying to recover my system - the whole disc, to a new disc I have installed. I have installed Windows XP on it and updated to the latest standard. I have installed Acronis True Image 10 which is the same level I created the backup files with. When I try to restore my system, it tells me a re-boot is required to complete the first stage....so.....it reboots and then the Acronis loader says it is loading....then.....a window flashes on the screen and then dissapears leaving the system to reboot back to windows again....all Acronis stuff has finished so back to square 1 and try again. Same result each time. Any suggestions please?

Often times, you have better result by performing the restore when booted from the TI Rescue CD. Doing so takes Windows out of the picture.
On first bootup following the restore, only the new drive should be attached. You do not want Windows to see two identical drives because Windows can get confused as to which is the intended boot drive.
