True Image 2010 Boot Disk will not see Drives
Hello,
I just purchased True Image Home 2010. Neither the Disk that cmae with the software or creating a recover disk will recognise the disk drives in my EliteBook 6930. If I boot to the disk and choose safe mode it will see the volumes but not read anything, if I choose full version the boot will hang on the discovery phase.
I registered the product on Friday and I can not pull down the updates for 2010. My profile still shows no products registered. Will this product work on a HP EliteBook 6930 from a recover disk? I can backup and restore online to VISTA fine, On 11/12 I had a hard disk error, and I had to install VISTA than True Image to do a restore because neither the instal disk or the recovery disk I created worked.

I found that True Image Home Plus Pack needed to have acpi=off in the bootable media startup parameters in order to have all the drives in my system read when creating a boot disk with Acronis Bootable Rescue Media Builder. Both ISOLINUX Bootable Media (with or without Plus Pack) read my drives just fine.

Dear Gary!
Thank you for your valuable and correct comment!
I just wanted to add - maybe this information will be useful for others - that in case you have downloaded an *.iso from the website, created a CD and it still doesn't work, we would advise you to boot with the parameter 2 - this is the one with "acpi=off noapic" and may resolve the issue faced as well.
