Hi
This should work outside of the OS have a look at http://www.dustan.co.uk
there is some info that maybe of use, you will need to use the address
bar at the top because the site is new and is not indexed in google
yet.

Acronis TrueImage version 10 works with Vista. There are 2 problems that
will be upsetting to Norton Ghost 10 users.

1) When you configure to validate after backup, TrueImage validates all
the backups on the backup location, even those previously validated

2) When you configure to take 4 backups, TrueImage does not delete the
oldest backup when you take the fifth backup.

In all cases, you will have to manually validate (if you want to validate
only the latest backup) and will have to manually delete unwanted backups.
This is true of the latest build 4,942.

Sent a message to Acronis and am still waiting for a reply.

Norton's Save and Restore 2.0 works fully with Vista, it's not as robust as
Ghost but works fine. The next version of Ghost will support Vista, but in
the mean time Save and Restore will work just fine..

Hope that helps..
