paging file (Pagefile.sys), as the paging file is created on the host partition outside the virtual one.
Microsoft states that you should estimate approximately 5 GB of available space in addition to the
maximum size of the vhd file. So the estimated free space is the size of your system partition plus 5 GB.
From the above, it follows that you cannot boot from the vhd file if it is located on your system partition.
6. Reboot the computer and select the new entry in the Acronis Boot Sequence Manager list for
booting, then click OK. If Windows boots normally, you can be quite sure that the backup will
recover to a bootable Windows 7 operating system.
7. After making sure that the tib image is bootable, you can remove its entry from the Acronis Boot
Sequence Manager list. To do so, select the entry and click Remove on the toolbar. Acronis True
Image Home 2011 Netbook Edition will ask to confirm removal. You may also want to delete the
vhd file used for booting. If so, open Windows Explorer and delete the file.
7.6.4 Acronis Boot Sequence Manager
Acronis Boot Sequence Manager allows you to add Windows 7 system partition images to the
booting list and then manage the list.
You can add to the list images backed up both in the vhd and tib formats. Adding a tib image requires
converting it into the vhd format. More detailed information on booting from tib images is provided
in the previous section.
Actual booting is carried out using Windows boot loader. Acronis Boot Sequence Manager just adds
virtual disks (vhd files) to the Windows boot loader' list of disks available for booting to Windows 7.
If you do not select from where to boot, then by default the computer boots from the first entry in
the booting list after waiting for a time interval specified in the Boot Timeout field. To change the
default boot disk (either physical or virtual), you can move entries up and down in the list using the
corresponding buttons on the toolbar.
Clicking the Rename button allows you to assign a desired name to a list entry.
When you no longer need an entry in the list, you can remove it by clicking Remove on the toolbar.
The Remove all button allows you to remove all entries related to virtual disks and restore the
original booting configuration.
The Acronis Boot Sequence Manager tool is only available for users of the Enterprise and Ultimate editions of
Windows 7.
7.7 Importing and exporting backup settings
Acronis True Image Home 2011 Netbook Edition allows you to import and export the settings of your
backups. This may be desirable if you need to transfer the settings to a new PC after installing Acronis
True Image Home 2011 Netbook Edition on that computer. Saving the settings may also be useful if
you later decide to upgrade to the next Acronis True Image Home 2011 Netbook Edition version.
Such transfer will make configuring backups on the new PC much easier. You only need to export the
settings and then import them to the other PC. The settings are exported in the form of script files.
In case of "classic" disk and file type backups the settings consist of the following items:
