Step 2: Creating Acronis Bootable Rescue Media with Acronis Universal Restore

Please make sure that you have Acronis Universal Restore installed on the same machine with Acronis True Image Echo. If it is installed, in the title of the product you will see Acronis True Image Echo [Edition] with Acronis Universal Restore.

   1. On the right pane of main window of the program click Create Bootable Resue Media:

   2. On the welcome screen of Acronis Media Builder click Next:

   3. On the Rescue Media Contents Selection check Acronis True Image Echo [Edition] with Acronis Universal Restore (full version):

   4. On the Bootable Media Selection screen choose your CD burner and insert a blank CD:

      You can also select ISO Image if you wish to burn the ISO to a CD later or use it to boot your Virtual Machine.

   5. On the final screen click Proceed to create Acronis Bootable Rescue CD:

Step 3: Restoring the backup to a machine with dissimilar hardware

Before restoring the backup of your machine to a machine with dissimilar hardware, please make sure you have drivers for the hard disk drive controller or chipset drivers. These drivers are critical for booting the operating system.

You can download the drivers for your motherboard on the Vendora^ۉ„¢s web-site. Please note, if you downloaded the drivers in *.exe, *.cab, *.zip format, you should extract them first.

The driver files should have *.inf, *.sys or *.oem extension.

   1. Boot the machine to which you are going to restore the backup from Acronis Bootable Rescue CD. (Remember to set the primary boot device to CD-ROM in BIOS to make the machine boot from the CD).

   2. Once booted, select Recovery:

   3. On the welcome screen of the Restore Data Wizard click Next:

   4. On the Backup Archive Selection screen choose the backup archive with system partition that you intend to recover:

   5. On the Restoration Type Selection screen choose Restore disks or partitions:

   6. On the Partition or Disk to Restore screen select the partitions you want to restore:

      The recommendation is to select partition by partition, not the whole disk to recover. In this case you will get the possibility to resize the target partition size. In most cases it is not necessary to restore MBR.

   7. On the Restored Partition Location select the target partition or unallocated space to which the backup will be restored:

   8. On the Restored Partition Type set the type Active for your system partition:

      If you do not set the type Active for your system partition, the machine will not boot.

   9. If you selected to restore only one partition instead of the whole hard disk drive, you will see the Restored Partition Size window that will let you set the size for the restored partition:

  10. On the Next Selection screen choose No, I do not if you are not going to restore other partitions at this time:

  11. On the Acronis Universal Restore screen select Use Acronis Universal Restore:

  12. On the Specifying Mass Storage Drivers screen click Add to specify drivers:

      The recommendation is to specify the drivers manually. Hardware Vendors usually provide separate drivers for SCSI or RAID controllers. IDE or SATA drivers are usually included into the chipset drivers for the motherboard.

      The HDD controller drivers are critical for booting the operating system. Specifying drivers for other devices (video/sound card) is not recommended. Once you restore and boot the system, you can update all other drivers manually in Windows Device Manager (Start -> Run -> devmgmt.msc).

  13. On the Select File screen point to the exact driver file for the HDD controller:

  14. Select the driver that will be used:

  15. On the Restoration Options screen you can check both options: Search removable media for device drivers and Search device drivers in the following locations:

      Acronis Universal Restore will search the checked options if some drivers are missing.

  16. In Additional settings you can also check Change SID after the restoration is finished:

      If this option is enabled, the SID will be automatically changed after the restore.

  17. On the final screen you can check the summary and click Proceed:

  18. The restore process will start:

If after the restore the machine does not boot correctly, please boot in Safe Mode (hit F8) and check the drivers in Windows Device Manager.

ReDeploy a system to new hardware
ReDeploy modifies an existing operating system to work on new hardware or on a virtual machine (VM).

To redeploy an image

  1. Boot the target PC or virtual machine with the Windows PE rescue CD.
  2. Restore the image file to the target disk. See Rescue a system with the Windows PE environment.
  3. When the restore is complete, on the restore tab in Macrium Reflect in Windows PE, click ReDeploy Restored Image to new hardware or select the ReDeploy To New Hardware option on the Restore menu.
  4. The ReDeploy screen appears.  Macrium ReDeploy searches the computer for operating systems. If you have more than one operating system installed then you are presented with a list of operating systems.  Please note that server class operating systems will not be supported on the non server version of Macrium ReFlect.

  5. Select the required operating system and click Next.

    The Driver File Locations screen appears.
  6. Specify driver locations for your mass storage devices (such as RAID card) and insert a driver disk for the hardware you are going to boot from. This is typically the motherboard or RAID card driver CD. Also specify additional paths such as network folders.
  7. Click Next.

    ReDeploy searches through the driver locations you specified. If you did not specify any locations, or no matching drivers are found, then ReDeploy searches removable devices such as CDs and floppy drives. Finally, ReDeploy searches through the Windows driver database.

    The Detected Devices screen appears with a list of drivers.

     
  8. Click on each device to view details of the device and drivers.
  9. Click Next.
  10. For each mass storage device, there are three possibilities:
    • The driver is already installed although it might still need to be enabled at boot. ReDeploy will enables the driver when you click finish.
    • The driver has been located, either from a CD, a user specified path, or from the Windows database. ReDeploy will install the driver when you click finish.
    • No matching driver has been located.
  11. If no driver has been located or to override the displayed driver, click Locate Driver and manually specify an .inf file.
    Note:  If you have several mass storage interfaces in your system, then you only need to locate drivers for the hardware that contains the windows system and active partitions.
    The Additional Options screen appears.
  12. Initially, leave the options on this page at their default values. If you have trouble booting the operating system on the new hardware, then you can use these options later to help resolve issues. The options are as follows:
     
    Option
    Description
    Disable reboot on system stop
    Set this option to prevent automatic rebooting when a Windows system stop and blue screen occur while Windows is loading or running. Without this this option blue screen displays for too little time for you to note the error codes.
    Display boot drivers as they load
    Set this option to show which drivers are loading as Windows loads. When Windows loads and runs without issue, switch off this option using the Windows MSCONFIG utility. Use the Pause/Break key to freeze the list as it scrolls past, use space to continue.
    Enable boot logging
    Set this option to make Windows log drivers as they load. Windows places the log file, ntblog.txt, in the Windows folder. When Windows loads and runs without issue, switch off this option using the Windows MSCONFIG utility.
    Disable CPU Driver
    Set this option to disable CPU drivers. This may be useful if you see blue screens caused by the selected Hardware Abstraction Layer drivers or experience a system lockup when starting standby or shutdown.
    Set Hardware Abstraction Layer
    Set this option to choose which Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) Windows uses. ReDeploy initially selects the recommended HAL for this machine. However, if you have the incorrect HAL configured, your Windows installation is typically unstable and produces blue screens and lock ups after Windows has booted. In particular, if you are redeploying from or to Virtual Box with APIC unchecked (the default) or very old physical hardware, the you need to set a new HAL.
    Allow Windows to detect Hardware Abstraction Layer
    Set this option to allow Windows to determine the best Hardware Abstraction Layer to use at boot time. For Vista, use this in preference to the Set Hardware Abstraction Layer option. This option only works for Windows Vista and later Windows operating systems.
    Enable SATA AHCI
    Set this option to enable support for generic SATA AHCI hardware. You will typically also need to enable an option in your BIOS for your mass storage hardware to operate in this mode. This option only works for Windows Vista and later Windows operating systems.

  13. Click Next
    A Confirmation screen presented a list of actions.
  14. Click Finish to apply these options to the target operating system.

    After a restart the operating system should be compatible with the new client computer.
    Note:  A log file ReDeploy.log is saved to the drive containing the redeployed operating system.
