corrupt

[Jackske]

Hi,
I made several images of my hard disk with Acronis True Image 11. I
did put them all on an external drive.
I did check them all and I kept only those which where validate.
I had a computer crash and I did want to restore an image.
All of them were suddenly corrupt!

And did you have a question about this or were you just venting? I'm not
sure what anyone here can do to help you except to refer you to Acronis
tech support.

Not likely, unless THEY (those image files) were on the crashed disk, and
got damaged. More likely something is wrong on your boot drive and how
that is affecting True Image's ability to work now. You could try
uninstalling, rebooting, and then reinstalling True Image (assuming your
system is still intact).

I have used Acronis TI many times to make and restore images from a seperate
external drive, and it works great, you should have your original install cd
for TI, just boot to it and restore from your external drive.

You forget about the option of booting from the CD?

True, he could boot from the True Image CD, if he has that (and purchased it
that way, in a box, or made one).
