The next job was installing around 100 Windows updates which took some considerable time and, of course, IE 7 played up. I then re-booted and it all worked as advertised. The repair then ran to completion and again loaded the necessary drivers, sorted Acronis TI and tidied up. I didn`t catch it in time to stop it so I had to leave it to run its course but it reported nothing. Again all went to plan until the Windows installation re-booted the PC at this point CHKDSK ran (I`ve no idea why).
I then re-booted and had exactly the same problem as before.Īt this point I was really confused as it seemed the problem was elsewhere.Īs a last ditch attempt, I deleted the drive and formatted the copied drive partitions, risking loss of data and went for the repair option again. I loaded drivers that were needed, set the screen resolution, tidied up the screen icons and uninstalled/reinstalled Acronis TI as some of its parts had been removed during the repair. When the PC booted to windows all appeared well and I went through the final setup screens (Do you want to register, etc) by using the `Next` button. The repair went as predicted in your link and I followed instructions to the letter. I figured it was the safest option and would, if necessary give me a second bite of the cherry.
I went for the `Repair` option and backed up everything by cloning the system drive to the second one making certain that I didn`t change the boot partition to the `new` item. Well, I`m finally back online with a functional PC after quite a bit of `fun`.
