If the disks have different disk letters in Windows and the recovery environment, the program
will display the following error message: "Acronis True Image Home 2011 cannot detect volume
N of "Name" archive". Here "Name" is the name of the required image backup. The volume
number (N) may be different depending on the number of backup versions in the backup.
Before continuing with the recovery, you need to know the sizes and physical order of all existing
partitions. To see this information, click Details on the wizard's toolbar. Acronis True Image
Home 2011 will display information about the backed up disk. This includes a graphical view of all
partitions the disk contains and their physical order on the disk. If a partition display is too small
to accommodate the relevant information, hover the mouse pointer over the partition to see the
information.
4. Select Recover whole disks and partitions at the Recovery method step.
5. At the What to recover step, select the boxes of the partitions to be recovered. Do not select the
MBR and Track 0 box, as this will result in selecting the entire disk for recovery. Recovering the
entire disk does not allow you to resize partitions manually. You will be able to recover the MBR
later. Select the partitions and click Next.
Selecting partitions leads to appearance of the relevant steps "Settings of partition ...". Note that
these steps start with partitions which do not have an assigned disk letter (as usually is the case
with hidden partitions). The partitions will then take an ascending order of partition disk letters.
This order cannot be changed. The order may differ from the physical order of the partitions on
the hard disk.
6. You can specify the following partition settings: location, type, and size. You will first need to
specify the settings of the hidden partition as it usually does not have a disk letter. Because you
are recovering to the new disk, click New location. Select the destination disk by either its
assigned name or capacity.
7. Clicking Accept will return you to the "Settings of partition ..." screen. Check the partition type
and change it, if necessary.
8. Proceed to specifying the partition size by clicking Change default in the Partition size area. By
default the partition will occupy the entire new disk. You need to keep the hidden partition size
unchanged and place it in the same location on the disk (at the start or the end of disk space). To
do this, resize and relocate the partition by dragging it or its borders with a mouse on the
horizontal bar on the screen. Or you can enter corresponding values into the appropriate fields
(Partition size, Free space before, Free space after). Click Accept when the partition has the
required size and location and then click Next.
Specify the settings for the second partition which in this case is your system partition. Click New
location, and then select unallocated space on the destination disk that will receive the partition.
Click Accept, check the partition type (change, if necessary). You should remember that the
system partition must be primary and marked as active. Specify the partition size which by
default equals the original size. Usually there is no free space after the partition, so allocate all
the unallocated space on the new disk to the second partition. Click Accept and then click Next.
9. Carefully read the summary of operations to be performed. If you do not want to validate the
backup, click Proceed. Otherwise click Options and select the Validate backup archive before
recovery box before clicking Proceed.
10. When the operation finishes, proceed to MBR recovery. You need to recover the MBR because
the PC manufacturer could change the generic Windows MBR or a sector on the track 0 to
provide access to the hidden partition.
11. Reselect the same backup. Then right-click and select Recover in the shortcut menu. Choose
Recover whole disks and partitions at the Recovery method step and then select the MBR and
Track 0 box.
