Clone Disk ?

Thread needs solution

A friend helped me build a pc many years ago. If memory serves me correctly Acronis ( 2010 version ? ) was a freebie that I was offered with a Western Digital hard drive at the time. Once system was setup and running fine, I made a back up, so I have a .tib file. My boot drive died on me a few days ago, and after much effort I have been able to get windows (7) running on it. What I now want to do is "replace" this drive with my tib file, which I have stashed on one of my local media drives. I have downloaded the 30 day trial version of True Image 2015, but am at a loss as to how to do this. I have been rooting around in the program, and it looks like what I might be looking to do is "clone" disk, which is not available in trial. I'm happy to buy if Clone disk is what I actually need to do to restore my drive.

Any help is appreciated.

I tried using the disk cloning feature on true image 2014 and followed the screen instructions. Picked the source and distination drives. the program came back and said a reboot was required. On reboot got a UEF l loaded .... Runtime error failed to find. line info: 0xec492506f42e4db $module: bootwiz_efia64 and it is in an endless loop. How can I unlock the drive and get windows 8 to boot up

Jim,
You have a completely separate issue. >>Please start a new thread.<< Give it a meaningful title and provide as much information about your issue and the troubleshooting steps attempted thus far. It sounds like a Secure Boot BIOS issue.

RFox,
Cloning is NOT what you want to do. Cloning copies the source disk to a destination. In this case your fresh install to another disk. I'm sure this isn't what you want to do. The operation you are looking for is Disk Image Restore > which will allow you to restore one or all of the partitions from a previously created .tib image file.
