Recovery of backup after motherboard failire

Thread needs solution

Hello,
The motherboard on my XP desktop machine failed, but I had a recent Acronis backup of my data drive on an external disk. I was using Acronis Disk Image 2011. What is the recovery procedure in such a circumstance?

I saved my Acronis installation files and tried to install it on my laptop to try to recover my backup, but the install would not accept my registration information. I wasn't going to try to recover to the laptop, which does not have enough disk space to accommodate all the files, but to recover the files to another external disk. In any event installing Acronis to the laptop failed.

What do you suggest as a further attempt to try to recover my files?

Thanks so much,
Ellen

Try the recovery after booting from the ATI Rescue Media.

thanks, I will try to find it. Would that be something I created or something that comes with the product?

Will it be possible to recover to another drive letter?

And do you know why I am not able to install Acronis to another machine from the installation files I originally downloaded? I have the serial, etc. information.

Thanks so much
Ellen
