1017 error when restoring a C drive

Hi Amy,

 

Here's the steps I took:

 

I booted from a w98 startup disk. I was restoring to an spare drive I had (WD 10 gig), so I formatted it with the S option. I then installed W98 and specified the Temp folder. After that completed, I rebooted (Bill Gates favorite function) and installed Retrospect 6 from my D drive where I keep all downloaded software. I then did a Find Files (I did not have a snapshot) and selected a backup I had on my E drive (I backup my C drive to my local E drive). It rebuilt the catalog and I selected Restore Entire Volume ©. It then began restoring and got the error about 1/2 way through.

One more thought I have on this problem I should have mentioned earlier. My backup contains all of my C drive and selected files from my D drive. I only specified the C drive volume when restoring. Is it possible it restored the C drive and then encountered the error because of the D drive files on the backup? The C drive appears complete, but it's hard to be sure...
