Acronis 11 backup

I down loaded the Acronis 11 backup software for my Western Digital 1TB
external hard drive. I have an internal drive with Windows. 750GB. And a 1TB
internal drive with several partitions in it. I did a custom install. Could
someone who is familiar with backups please walk me through making a boot
disc, and explain how to back up to me. Thank you. Ginny

Acronis will make the boot disk for you. Open it, choose the option.

Use Acronis "Help" to learn how to do your imaging.

If you start Acronis, you will find the wizards simple to follow. - its all
there
In your earlier post you refer to a 50gb limitation, I dont know where you
think you found this info, or what exactly you mean. I have found no
limitation in cloning or restoring.
PS if your intention is to use your external for backing up to, I'm not sure
why you thought it neccessary to do a Custom Installation.

I didn't want the google toolbar and extras like that. I am trying to do
a backup disc with the wizard but since I don't totally understand this, I
am not doing it right because the "next" button is grayed out. Someone else
set up my system for me and I don't know what everything is. Acronis opened
what it thought would be the boot info but it evidently wasn't. Ginny

Very cute, Colin. I meant it was not a "Business/Ultimate/Enterprise"
edition. ...but thank you for that.
Can you tell me how I can tell which drives are which , on my machine. My
external drive was 'S' and I had a 8 GB partition for Temp folders. 'D' has
changed to what I expect is this WD external drive.

Where did you Custom Install Acronis to, and why?
Was it your intention to use the external drive as a back up drive?
If so what was your reasoning for Partitioning the external into multiple
partitions

Looking at your internal drives, a 750gb + 1tb presumably you will be
storing a serious amount of data?
Something akin to 125000 mp3 music files?

Just a WAG: because the OP doesn't need the entire 1TB of space for
backing up??

Keyword: presumably.

And at that point you can explore the contents. Once you get this sorted
why don't you give plain English names to each volume reminding you how you
use it. I use names like Vista64 (C:), Data (F:), Backups (K:) (an external
usb drive), and so on. No matter how the drive is hooked up or what
computer it is moved to the name persists regardless of the drive letter
assigned.

As for being cute...well...I sorta was, but you sometimes never know in this
ng what folks are trying to say and I was trying to cover the bases.
Anyway, glad you took it in good humor. :)

"D" isn't a second physical hard drive. It's a second partition on
the one hard drive your notebook has, and it contains necessary files
to restore your computer to "out of the box" condition.

Do NOT use Acronis Secure Zone on a notebook with such a partition.

Use an external hard drive for backups.
