Hello Chandrasekar,

Thank you for using Acronis Products

You can restore separate partition from full drive backup. You can restore eg. only your system partition to another drive. Note that if you would like to use newly restored image with operating system on another machine with different hardware you will have to use AUR first.

Acronis Universal Restore is required to restore the image of Windows operating system to another hardware configuration. It the implementation of the unique technology developed inside Acronis that allows changing Windows Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL.dll) and device drivers.  Acronis Universal Restore automatically detects if the HAL should be changed and also allows adding drivers for new hardware devices. This feature was designed for Corporate products and can’t be used with Home products.
