| 1401578 | 2015-05-31 21:31:00 | I'm holding off upgrading for now | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1401579 | 2015-06-01 05:27:00 | Fixed it :) I added the drivers from an Acronis Disk, ' SnapAPISSetup.msi' to the Boot disk and it works fine, except for taking ages to load which seems to be common to 'Windows PE'. I have discovered a very good FREE program called 'AOMEI'. Very nice interface, all functions work. The only thing it hasn't got is ' Universal Restore '. Is compatible with W10,8,8.1,7,Vista,XP. Download from http://www.backup-utility.com/ I also tried 'Acronis 2015, works well, has Universal Restore. Costs US$39 for the Home version. |

AOMEI do have a Universal Restore, but its in the AOMEI Backupper Pro version. if you wanted it for Free, keep an eye on some of the Giveaway sites, they give away various programs for a limited time. Example at Windows Deal : www.windowsdeal.com Another Site is sharewareonsale.com as well as http://www.topsoftbargains.com/ Last Pro Edition I got was back in 2014 |

| 1401582 | 2015-06-02 09:21:00 | I stand corrected, the AOMEI Backupper Standard does have Universal Restore, brilliant piece of software. It did a W7Pro system restore in 12 minutes with no problems. My only complaint is that the Windows PE rescue disk takes about 10 minutes to boot, but there is also a Linux disk which only takes 3 minutes to boot, but is limited to restoring only. | mzee (3324) | ||
| 1401583 | 2015-06-02 09:59:00 | AOMEI Backupper Standard does have Universal Restore Oh - they must have only added it no so long ago. Mind you Now that I've gotten around to it I do images to one of my servers in the form of a wim file, takes roughly 5-6 minutes to put back a image. If I wanted it to go to different hardware I'd sysprep it first or run paragons Universal Restore bootable cd . WinPE on its own shouldn't take 10 minutes to load, maybe due to the actual back up program its running. |

| 1401584 | 2015-06-03 09:10:00 | The Universal restore on the Standard version is a bit complicated, it involves making commands etc and I couldn't be bothered. I will get the Professional version which does it straight out. A word of warning about Acronis 2015. When it installed my Acronis 11 was uninstalled by it. Later I uninstalled Acronis 2015 and reinstalled Acronis 11 which is now crippled and won't find drives etc. I have used 'Revo-Uninstaller' and CCleaner with no luck. |
