BSoD on backup

Thread needs solution

I am running TI 2012 Update 2.  All was working fine until now.  I am trying to create a new backup and have run into bad sectors on my drive.  When the backup gets almost to the end it blue screens.  I get an error dialog that it has found bad sectors and I choose Ignore All.  Within a couple of minuets it blue screens with 0x00100A50 and is very repeatable.  I want to restore the backup to a new SSD drive.  Any ideas why this is happening?

Intel 5 series 6 port SATA AHCI Controler

Intel driver, MS signed: 9.6.0.1014

Disk: ST95005620AS

Since you have bad sectors on the drive and are getting blue screen errors, you would be wise to boot to your Acronis Rescue Media and create a backup outside of the Windows environment. Please keep in mind, any data that resides on the bad sectors will more than likely be either skipped or backed up in a corrupted state. (But at least a backup of some data is better than no data).
Once you have created your backup outside of Windows, you can run chkdsk /r from a command prompt in Windows on your drive(s) to attempt repairs. If all goes well with the repairs, you should create a new full disk based backup to use for the restore to your new drive. Only if it was the last resort would I restore from a backup made on a system that contained bad sectors that had not been corrected or not marked as bad by chkdsk or other utility, such as a drive manufactures or third party application.
Be sure you are doing a full disk based backup to make certain all the partitions on your existing drive get backed up correctly.

If you can't get a backup to complete from the bootCD as James prescribes, then try running chkdsk /r and then try to backup. Some errors are too severe for ati to ignore and chckdsk can fix those. However, if the hdisk is too far gone, new errors will keep popping up.

Thanks for the ideas. So I took the drive out of the laptop and connected it to my workstation. I'm running a chkdsk /r on it now.

I have all my data so that's not going to be an issue.

I am upgrading to a 500G SSD and was going to image old/restore new (clone didn't work for me last time I tried). Also, I don't want to take bad sectors to the new drive. Will Acronis skip the bad sectors?

I can image from the workstation if this works.

Any other thoughts or ideas?

BTW. I tried Paragon Trial and it gets to the bad sector and stops. No GPF but no backup either.

update. a chkdsk /r with the drive in another machine found bad clusters in a duplicate outlook pst file and fixed it. i removed the file and backed up successfully.
