Solve : acronis true image home 2009? |
|
Answer» Quite a lot of things i have been reading lately, tells people that the only way to know for sure if this works or not, is to put another hard disk in and try it. No, but the idea is to have a backup in case something goes way bad. True Image is good.But IF you have trouble wit hit, you need another method to get back to where you started. A simple method is to burn all of My Documents onto a DVD or two. Now you have a copy of you personal stuff in case you have to do a full format and install of Windows and Programs over again. Which is not likely, but you are prepared. . Acronis true image is one of, if not the best backup/imaging software available. Quote tells people that the only way to know for sure if this works or not, is to put another hard disk in and try it. I think they are talking about some other popular but not supported (on these forums) ways of testing software. Don't worry about Acronis.

Right i think i am with you on this, when i do get acronis, and do a full system disk image , it is also advisable to make a copy of your personal stuff like you said on a different storage device. That way if for some reason in the unlikely event of a system failure, and for some unknown reason the acronis boot cd wont work, at least you will still have your personal stuff backed up. But i think if you have done everything right, i carn't see there will be any problems Quote from: evilfantasy on April 24, 2009, 06:05:08 PM . thanks, some reasuring news, thats nice to here I am a BIT of a worrier, and was panicing a bit, saying how do i put a spare hard drive in, though it might not be to difficult, i have know knowledge of that I CREATE an image once a week and save it to another partition...you can't save an image to the same partition. Then once a month i burn the latest image and delete the other 3... This way worst case i'm 3 weeks away from my last backup. All drives fail which is why i suggest burning them to DVD's.hello, here's a useful tutorial on how to USE Acronis True Image Home. http://computerticket.blogspot.com/2009/08/how-to-use-acronis-true-image-home-12.html Good Luck!!! Nice Bump... Quote from: loopback on August 02, 2009, 02:50:06 PM hello, here's a useful tutorial on how to use Acronis True Image Home. Thanks loopback for the link I have currently aquired acronis true image home 2009, actually last week after using the trial version and found it pritty easy to use and understand, there was a few things that i was unsure of at first, but the support forum in good, but mostly if i am unsure on anything i will just use there ONLINE chat to get an answer. Like last week when i bought it, i had backed up partitions C: and E: on an external hard drive and "Protection state" said i was protected, but when i unplugged the hard drive and then plugged it back in later "Protection state" is saying that i am not protected. This really confused me at first, but acronis told me that it was because i was using the external hard drive and that it can basically "forget" to remember was it has done, but nothing to worry about, but i still got a seconed opinion from the support forum....
