15.3 Backup and validation issues
1) When you get a problem with backup or validation, first of all make sure that you have the latest
build of Acronis True Image OEM Quick Backup. You can download it through your Acronis account.
This is because Acronis are continuously working on improving our products. The latest build may
contain bug fixes and provide enhanced hardware compatibility.
2) Errors encountered while backing up data or validating backup archives may be caused by hard
disk errors and/or bad sectors, so check the source and destination disks if you encounter an issue
when backing up or check the backup archive storage disk when validating a backup archive. To do
this, use the Windows chkdsk utility as follows:
- Go to the Command Prompt (Start → Run → cmd)
- Enter the following command: "chkdsk DISK: /r" (where DISK is the partition letter you need to
check, e.g. D:). Please note, that checking the C: drive may require you to reboot the PC.
3) The reason for errors may be defective RAM modules. To test the memory modules of your PC,
please download one of the archives depending on what media type you are going to use:
- memtest archive for diskette
- memtest archive for USB Flash drive
- memtest archive for CD
Unpack the archive and create bootable media with the memory test. Instructions on how to do it
can be found in README.txt in the archive.
4) Check whether this section contains a solution to your problem:
