Hello,

I have a quick and simple question, which I'd appreciate a response to... Will the bootable CD created by True Image be able to, on booting, load and run True Image even if there isn't an OS on the hard drive? The reason I ask this is that when I booted my machine (Vista installed) from the Acronis CD, it seemed to be running True Image in a Windows type environment.

Thanks!

... yes

... thats the idea the image should of been created onto the DVD prior, as the DVD boots up say with nothing on the harddrive showing a GUI Graphic User Interface also created onto the DVD
with the use of mouse plus options etc

... it is 2009!

Grrrr

You only need to boot from the cd id you have no OS, otherwise all operations can be run from Windows.
If you need to restore a previous image, run Acronis from Windows, it will tell you a reboot is required, no need to use the cd.

Any you can fix Vista using the PE 2.0 that is on Vista's DVD.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
