![]() ![]() It is just when I get to the point of recovering where the internal drive names are needed that there are no drives listed except for the external drive.Yes, I agree with your comment, DD has to reboot to make the test valid. The bootables both find the external backup drive ok. I would appreciate being able to get the special ISO file and/or some other fix so that I can get the system retrieved from one of my backups. I formatted the drives with DD!0, losing the system of course, so now can do nothing with the machine until I get the Windows XP Pro back in. I am writing this on my other machine as the mentioned machine was having BSOD problems and system halts which I suspected being HDD problems. The one that it defaulted to did not work either. ![]() The one time that I got it to work, it then bypassed my ability to choose one of the choices. That was frustrating as it would not allow my old fingers time to type it without going on with loading. Having read about like problems on the forum, also tried the 'quiet acpi=off noapic' solution mentioned. I have tried both the media that I had created and downloading the latest versions from the website. I have a problem with neither the DD10 bootable nor the TIH2011 bootable being able to find my two WD 500GB HDD drives. Hopefully this will complete without further problems. After booting Safe Mode from this disk I am now in the process of copying the partition to a USB drive. I created bootable media from the installed program instead of using the latest ISO and made sure that I included the Safe Mode option. I finally decided to try something that goes against all the advice I've seen in the forum. ![]() I could never get my boot disk to respond to F11. I had read about the acpi option in a couple of threads and attempted to use it. I checked the BIOS and made sure that my drive controller is in IDE mode. That ISO doesn't give me the choice for Safe Mode. I spent quite a bit of time searching through the forum and based on most of the comments I found I made sure that I was using the latest ISO image for my product. ![]() Your link points to the notes for True Image Home - not the product that I have. I did read the "Read Before You Post" note for Disk Director and there was no mention of the "quiet acpi=off noapic" option. ![]()
