Can't access Windows 7 backup after Windows 8 installation!

Thread needs solution

Before upgrading to Windows 8, I performed a full system backup of Windows 7. After successfully upgrading to Windows 8 and installing TIH 2013, I found that much of the software I need to use will not play nice with Windows 8. Therefore, I need to restore my backup before the upgrade... HOWEVER...

The restore only shows my secondary drive, not my system (C:) drive as part of the backup. In other words, it looks like a backup with TIH 2012 in Windows 7 can not be restored over a TIH 2013 in Windows 8. Is this true??? If so, this renders the product useless :(

Boot from the Acronis True Image bootable Recovery Media (Rescue Media), and try the restore from there.
