corrupt Image with ATIH 10.0.0.4942

Thread needs solution

Hello,

I have the folowing issue:

I take an Image from my Notebook (500GB HD) in normal compress mode.
at 98% of the imageprocess this procedure freezed.

After a restart the Notebook /Windows XP didn't come up, it seems to be that the hardisk have an hardware failure.
If i want to restore this image to an new HDD or when i try to mount it, i get this error:
---------------------------------------------
An error occured when opening archive:
Archive is invalid or its type is unsupported (0x400001)
Tag=0x5B2229AB74EF6533
Cannot open archive for reading.(0x400002)
path="N:\....\....\note.tib"
Tag=0x7967E78EC51EA9E7
This is not the last volume of the backup archive. (0x40012)
Tag=0x6517E0ECF4E1009F
---------------------------------------------
I think, because this imagingprocess stop at 98%, that this file is corrupt now.

Is there any way to repair this image-file or do anyone know a tool how to extract some file óut of this corrupt image file?
Thanks for the help in advance
Kind Regards

Andy

It sounds like you tried to backup too late. If the backup process didn't complete, then you won't have a usable backup. It sounds like you're hdisk fatally crashed while you were making the backup and the file was not completed properly -- in which case it's unlikely that the backup any good at all..

There is no way to repair a corrupt backup -- the only choice would be to make a new backup but that requires you still have the source disk working.

Sometimes you can open the backup with Explorer and copy files out but this will only help with data files; it won't get you the OS or the programs.

thanks for your response.
I dont't want the OS or the programs back, if i get some files back, that would help me very much.
Is there really no way to repair those tib-files?

Unfortunately, no -- no way to put back the bytes that are incorrect. When ati backs up, it creates a check sum every few thousand bytes or so and embeds the checksums in the backup. When ati reads or validates a file tries to recreate the checksums and compare them to the originals, any failure makes the backup "Invalid." Checksums are used because the source can change after, even during the creation of a backup so there is nothing else to compare the backup data to.

Instead of Mounting, it might be possible to explore the tib by double-clicking on it. Short of that, I think the backup is kaput. It might be possible, if the hdisk still operates to boot from a CD that has a file manager on it and copy off some of your files to another disk. This could be a winpe disk or some linux disk. You can find iso files to make these sorts of things if you google.
