32 bit application doesn't restore all files

I have disk backups that contain large number of files that I try to restore using the 32 bit application on Windows 7 systems that I just want to restore the data from to another drive. I have tried the 2010 version as well as the latest version and both will start restoring the files but when I go to the restored folders some files are missing. I have been successful with the boot disk with getting all of the files restored but in some situations I am unable to boot the acronis boot disk to recover the data. If I only restore small number of files at a time it will work but in one case there are too many files even in one folder and the process just disappears after a while without any errors or other indications that it wasn't successful. It seems to be similar to the windows problem of copying where if it has a problem with a particular file it stops the operation. I've tried this on multiple PC's and have tried the restore from a external USB drive as well a having the backup file on the local harddrive and restoring to a different folder location on the same harddrive. I have not tried using the application in safemode yet but I was wondering if anyone has run into this problem and found a way to restore large amounts of data with the application.
