I've just set up dual boot systems to try Win8 upgrade before committing. Upgraded from 2011 to 2013 on two machines for backups. On my main machine TrueImage 2013 doesn't see one of the disks for backup as partitions. This is a WD Black drive with both the Win8 boot partition and a data partition on it. TrueImage 2013 does see it as a complete disk.
When I reboot into Win 7 and use the 2013 installed there, the same happens. It doesn't see that drive as 2 partitions.
TrueImage 2011 always sees all partitions and works perfectly, but it's not compatible with Win 8.
On my notebook which is set up as a dual boot also, TrueImage 2013 sees the win 8 boot partition and the data partition on the physical hard drive correctly.

Is this a known issue to be addressed in an update? Because without being able to backup and restore the Win 8 boot drive I won't complete the upgrade to Win 8 anytime soon.

Issue resolved here.

Problem solved.
I had some corruption on the drive that wasn't allowing Acronis to read the MBT.
Had 2013 Tools wipe and create new partitions. All fine now.
