Hi there,
I really hope you can help me here.
I have just done a Vista 64 complete image restore so I could rollback my computer to an earlier time to get rid of some cr$p programs and drivers.
I have done this before, restoring the c: partition and it has worked ok.
I have 4 drives in this computer and the Vista 64 OS is on a 100gb partition of a 750gb disk. I have four other partitions on that disk which contain other data such as videos etc.
In this instance Vista complete restore has restored the c: partition but deleted the files in the other four partitions. The partitions can still be seen but contain no data. I would desperately like to restore this data. Could this have occurred due to a overwritten MBR.
Before doing the complete pc restore with vista this morning, I did an image backup with both Vista and Acronis TI. I am sure the ATI backup also included the MBR and Track 0.
If I was to restore using this image to "pre-rollback" is it possible if I also choose the MBR restore option I will (hopefully should) get all files back??
Your help would be really, really appreciated as I have data I do not want to lose.
kind regards,
Harry.
