I can click to safely remove hardware and it is showing up there as well but I cannot access the backups that are on that drive now and it is not being shown in My Computer at all. It is listed in device manager and if I go to My Computer and right click for manage and click on disk management it is being shown but as unallocated space now. I tried plugging it into my laptop with the same results. The following afternoon when I turned the computer on the Seagate is no longer being recognized by the computer. It was late by then so I just shut down the computer and turned everything off and thought that I would try again the next day.
I then created another bootable rescue media disc and tried to load the TrueImage program but it again showed the True Image screen and then booted to Windows XP instead. So I tried 3 more times with the same results. On restart It did show the screen for starting true image and then another screen popped up and vanished just as quickly and Windows XP Pro started instead. I plugged the Seagate Free Agent External Hard Drive it into that pc the other day to restore it to one of those backups it was recognized by the pc so I put the rescue / boot disc into the cd drive and restarted the pc.
Como usar acronis true image 2014 install#
I had been having issues that the older desktop pc and wound up just doing a clean install and I was going to use my image backup from a few months ago to restore the pc to that time (only because I forgot about my image backup before doing the clean install). I have a Seagate 500GB Free Agent Desktop USB ST305004FDA1E1-RK, P/N 9NF2AL-570 that I was using to store my Acronis true image backups on of an older desktop pc.
