Acronis Back up Recovery

Thread needs solution

I had Windows 8 Pre-Installed On my laptop. My HDD was GPT. I backed up with Acronis and saved it in a partition in HDD. Once I Installed Linux Alongside Win 8. Unfortunatly My HDD Cleaned Entirly. I could Recover a partition that back up file was there. I used Acronis Boot to Recover Back up, But didn't work and during the recovering show "Operation failed". I saved back up in External hard and converted from GPT to MBR(Cause I can't intasll windows In GPT mode). Now I can Explore backup file and see old windows file But Again doesn't work.

How Can I recover ?

Why can't you install Win in GPT mode?

If you made a full disk backup of a gpt disk, you need to restore to a gpt disk. You won't need to install Win if it was already installed on the disk when you backed it up.

Btw, always keep at least one if not all backups on disk separate for the machine.
