4.9 Acronis Universal Restore

4.9.1 Purpose of Acronis Universal Restore

Universal Restore is part of the Acronis True Image Home 2011 Plus Pack which must be purchased

separately. Acronis True Image Home 2011 Plus Pack has its own license and is installed from its own

setup file. You need to re-create bootable media in order to make the newly installed Universal

Restore add-on operational in the bootable recovery environment.

A system disk image can be restored easily on the hardware where it was created or to identical

hardware. However, if you change the motherboard or use another processor version, a likely

possibility in case of hardware failure, the recovered system could fail to boot.

Trying to move the system to a new more powerful computer will usually produce the same result.

This is because the new hardware is incompatible with critical drivers included in the image.

Microsoft System Preparation Tool (Sysprep) will not resolve this problem. Sysprep allows you to

replace only Plug-and-Play device drivers (sound cards, network adapters, video cards etc.).

However, System Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and mass storage device drivers must be

identical on both the source and the target computers (see Microsoft Knowledge Base, articles

302577 and 216915).

Acronis Universal Restore technology provides an efficient solution for hardware-independent

system restoration by replacing the crucial Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and mass storage

device drivers.

Acronis Universal Restore is applicable for:

1. Instant recovery of a failed system on different hardware

2. Hardware-independent cloning of operating systems

4.9.1.1 Limitations in using Acronis Universal Restore

1. The system recovered by Acronis Universal Restore might not start, if the partition structure in the

image or the target disk partitioning does not coincide with that of the source disk. The loader

restored from the image will point to the wrong partition and the system will not boot or will

malfunction.

This may occur if you:

 back up only selected partitions but not the entire source disk

 restore only selected partitions and not the entire source disk. In some cases, especially if your

system resides on a partition other than the original one, this can confuse the loader and prevent

the restored system from rebooting.

To avoid this problem, we recommend that you back up and recover the entire system disk.

2. The Acronis Universal Restore option does not work if a computer is booted with Acronis Startup

Recovery Manager (using F11) or the backup image is located in Acronis Secure Zone. This is because

Acronis Startup Recovery Manager and Acronis Secure Zone are primarily meant for data recovery on

the same computer.
