Chapter 7. Restoring the backup data

7.1 Restore under Windows or boot from CD?

As mentioned above (see

2.4.1. Running Acronis True Image Workstation (local version)

Acronis True Image Workstation can be run in several ways. We recommend that you first
try to restore data running Acronis True Image Workstation under Windows, because this
method provides more functionality. Boot from the bootable media or use the Startup
Recovery Manager (see

3.4 Acronis Startup Recovery Manager)

only if Windows does not

load.
The boot CD from which you loaded the program does not keep you from using other CDs
with backups. Acronis True Image Workstation is loaded entirely into RAM, so you can
remove the bootable CD to insert the archive disk.

Be careful! Disk letters in standalone Acronis True Image Workstation might sometimes

differ from the way Windows identifies drives. For example, the D: drive identified in the

standalone Acronis True Image Workstation might correspond to the E: drive in Windows.

If a backup image is located on bootable media, you might have a choice of using Acronis

One-Click Restore. This operation always restores the entire physical disk. Therefore, if your

disk consists of several partitions, the partitions which are missing from the image will be

lost. Please make sure that the image contains all disk partitions or you do not need the

partitions that are not imaged before using Acronis One-Click Restore. For more information

on Acronis One-Click Restore see

6.3.9 Media components.

7.1.1 Network settings in rescue mode

When booted from removable media, RIS server or by Startup Recovery Manager, Acronis
True Image Workstation may not detect the network. Such might be the case if there is no
DHCP server in your network or your computer address was not identified automatically for
some reason.
To enable connection, specify network settings manually in the window, available at Tools -
> Options -> Network adapters.
