How could Acronis be distributing a commercial product (for free or at
any price) that they never owned? That would constitute both piracy and
copyright infringment (generating revenue is not required to violate
copyright). DriveImage was a PowerQuest product and PowerQuest got
gobbled up and made to disappear by Symantec.

Sorry, I got mixed up. Acronis made TrueImage 7 freely available, which is
their own product.

Drive Image 7 has nothing to do with
Acronis. It is a completely a different
product. I think you have in mind a
droduct called Acronis True Immage may be
ver 7.

DriveImage 7 is so old that Acronis made it available freely for a while.
You can install it on some Win2000 machine, then burn a bootable Recovery CD
and use that CD on your WinXP machine.

Yes, I said so in my reply to Vanguard a few hours ago. For some strange
reason your own reply did not make it to this forum until 15 hours after you
posted it - unless there is a problem with your PC clock.
