From: Steve Ardcorr on 10 Jun 2010 12:03 Back again. I'm about to clone my main drive with acronis true image and I've never been so scared. Is it at all possible to completely mess it up and loose the drive that I'm trying to copy? I don't mind if screwing it up means the worse that can happen is I'll have to do it again :) I've never done this before although people have been telling me for years I should.

From: Steve Ardcorr on 10 Jun 2010 12:21 OK, I guess (hope) it wouldn't let me overwrite my current main drive since that's where it's installed. I'm going from one un-partitioned drive to another but if there is a way to screw it up I'll find it like some deranged bloodhound.

" ( this being Usenet I can't write it in large friendly letters ). Just don't do anything in a hurry, even if it looks like something went wrong, cos that's when one is most apt to push the wrong buttons (or format the wrong drive, which I actually did once ). You should be fine. Is this for the new DAW? What'd you get?

From: Ardcorr on 10 Jun 2010 15:13 Cheers John It didn't give me that many options which is a good thing in my book. Hi Phoenix No, it's for the old DAW that I thought was about to die. In the end it turned out that there was an intermittent problem with the power supply so although I was all excited about a new DAW I'm quite pleased to have saved my self £1.300 :) Steve As for what I nearly got, here a break down....
