I have Acronis True Image Home 2009. I have created a bootable CD-R disk on my desktop computer from the True Image software that I downloaded from the Acronis site. The disk contains a single folder of 32Meg. called Recovery Manager. The folder has 7 files (bootmenu.bin; bootwiz.bin; f11.cfg; kernel.dat; mouse.com; ramdisk.dat; splash.run).
I want to use this disk to run System Cleanup on a Dell Latitude laptop before I dispose of it. The laptop has Windows 98 with a Pentium-233 MHz/MMX.

When I try to launch True Image, I get the message:
“This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU:
cmov
Unable to boot – please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU”

When I purchased the software, I was under the impression that I would be able to use it for this type of thing.
Should the software be able to do this? Is there something that I am not doing?

Thank you for your time,
RonJ

I don't believe the bootable rescue disk will do what you're asking. It is used to boot your computer to create and restore images of your disks/partitions. You would use the CD in the event of a disk crash and you could not boot your computer normally. You would insert the disk, start the computer (booting from CD), and restore a previously created image that was not stored on the damaged disk. As far as I know, there is no system cleanup feature.

Others here may be able to explain this better.

I think Ron is referring to the System Clean-up feature of TI 2009. However, that feature isn't available from the TI CD. It's only available in Windows.

If you want to wipe/clear the drive, you can use the DriveCleanser feature from the TI CD.

Since the CPU is so old, it's not surprising that the Linux kernel in TI 2009 doesn't support it. You might try the SafeMedia version of TI 2009 or another program (as suggested by DwnNDrty).

Thank you for the responses.
I don't want to wipe the entire laptop hard drive. I was wanting to erase only the data that I have added and not the operating syste.

If you're that concerned about someone "finding" your data I would use DBan Eraser then reinstall Win 98.

Thank you for your comments. I will consider this item closed.
Guess this is just another advertised thing like one-click backup that this software won't do.
