Acronis True Image has multiple compression options. Go into the options screen before burning.

Wind - Windows? Really?

cropape · « **Reply #6 on:** November 11, 2009, 11:03:02 AM »

Ty for your help, I am so confused because why is my Doc and setting folder in C-drive so big, cause I did transfer all mu personal stuff on D-drive/

Ok, I will look in ACRONIS for compression again,/ I don't mind to use 2 dvd for burnign IMAGE,but dvd burner is KICKING my DVD out saying NOT ENOUGH SPACe,so How can I do this?? Well I will try all this again, ty so much for your help

PS Which cd burner is best and is ACRONIS good for IMAGE please?

Allan · « **Reply #7 on:** November 11, 2009, 11:06:33 AM »

In my opinion Acronis is the best.

So, your Documents folder is part of this image file? How large is your Documents folder? If removing your Documents folder from the files being backed up to the disk image would alleviate this problem, why not just create a separate backup for your Documents folder?

Allan · « **Reply #9 on:** November 11, 2009, 11:34:42 AM »

You can disable system restore before doing the backup. That will get rid of your restore points which are undoubtedly taking a lot of space.

DVD size is 4.2G last time i checked....
That's why it got kicked.

However if Acronis is used properly it has a built in spanning tool for more than 1 blank media...

medium

patio · « **Reply #12 on:** November 11, 2009, 04:03:29 PM »

Media is plural...cut it out.

Allan · « **Reply #13 on:** November 11, 2009, 04:03:48 PM »

Exactly - you said "One blank media" "One" is singular.

more than 1 blank media..

Allan · « **Reply #15 on:** November 11, 2009, 04:28:20 PM »

Nope. The "1" is the key. It would still be "more than one blank medium" just as it would be "more than one item" or "more than 1 person", etc. Sorry - but nice try

patio · « **Reply #16 on:** November 11, 2009, 04:32:05 PM »

1 blank DVD d....it......

There you go

Thank you for help, I had no luck or don't know what I am doing?

Finaly, after deleting some of my files IMAGE was under 4Gwhen I try toburn dvd now cd burner said
IT'S NOT DEEPBURNER FILE" and in Nero it said same error

What is wrong??

patio · « **Reply #19 on:** November 11, 2009, 05:04:27 PM »

DLoad ; install and try Macrium Reflect Home version...FREE.
I never had much luck with deepburner.

Other than that i'd buy Acronis...it'll be a good investment...Trust me.

cropape · « **Reply #20 on:** November 11, 2009, 05:13:07 PM »

Ty for your help/ Finaly I create IMAGE size under 4GB with ACRONIS pr, but now when I try to BURN DVD, my cd burner DeepBurner said "IT IS NOT DEEPBURNER FILE", and NERO said error?
Do you know what is wrong?

cropape · « **Reply #21 on:** November 11, 2009, 05:17:52 PM »

Sorry, I send same msg twice by mistake/ I do have ACRONIS but it is CD burners NERo and DeepBurner who doesn't let me to burn dvd?

Do i have to burn normal format or ISo or what i have to do when burning please??This is driving me nuts

patio · « **Reply #22 on:** November 11, 2009, 05:35:58 PM »

why are you not just burning it from within acronis ? ?

Allan · « **Reply #23 on:** November 12, 2009, 05:46:03 AM »

Acronis True Image asks you where to save the image. At that point browse to your cd drive and save it there. Do NOT use any program other than Acronis True Image during the image creation and burning process.

cropape · « **Reply #24 on:** November 12, 2009, 09:22:46 AM »

Hi Alan, I didn't know that ACRONIS has option to BURN CD

I can see that Acronis did safe my IMAGE file but i didn't see option to BURN when it was done, I guess i should start all over
Anyway, I am using DeepBurner for years and never had problem burning cd/dvd that is why didn't know what to do

Do I have to burn IMAGe in ISo or what format?

Allan · « **Reply #25 on:** November 12, 2009, 09:43:45 AM »

There is no option to burn it. You have to point it to a location where you want it saved. If that location is a cd or dvd, it will automatically burn it as it is writing it.

cropape · « **Reply #26 on:** November 12, 2009, 12:51:08 PM »

;DO boy totaly confused now

Maybe I am doing something wrong/ When i create IMAGE I did chose y D:drive/ACRONIS IMAGE folder and acronis did save the file there

However, you said it burns automaticlli, do you mean that I have to keep DVD in the laptop while I am creating IMAGE??

Because how can Acronis burn it automaticly if i don't have dvd in computer?Sorry but this is confuse to me

See, after IMAGE was done, than I put DVD in and try to burn with NERo and DeepBurner,but burners SAYING IT ISN'T THEIR FILE???

Allan · « **Reply #27 on:** November 12, 2009, 12:53:51 PM »

Yes, you have to have a dvd in the drive. And if the dvd drive is e: then tell acronis to save the image to e:

(b) I have more than one cat

(A) I have more than two cat

(B) I have more than two cats

The second in each case (b) and (B) looks the right one. Because it is.

cropape · « **Reply #29 on:** November 12, 2009, 04:14:13 PM »

I've been using True Image for many years and have always been delighted with it, as I'm sure you will be.
