kolstadio Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 This is driving me a little crazy, and could turn into a huge problem. I am trying to restore some specific files from an approx 21GB backup on a Pokectec External Disc Drive. I made the backup on a Windows XP Home Edition, wiped the drive and installed Windows XP Pro - I get an Assertion Error during the recreate catalog phase and then another error message saying there was a power failure. Any ideas??? Dell P4 with Win XP Pro - Retrospect 6.5 Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolstadio Posted April 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 The actual error message is: Retrospect has encountered a serious error: Assertion failure at "acr.cpp-1274" blah blah blah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi Can you move the backup files to the internal drive and try the rebuild there? This is an unusual error, I'm wondering if it is hardware or driver related somehow. What type of backup set are you using? Thanks Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolstadio Posted April 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Thank you Nate for your response! I moved the backup files to my internal drive and ended up with the same result. I have 1GB RAM - All of my bios and chipset drivers are up-to-date. The backup set is approx. 21GB and there are a series of files AA000000 - AA000034 - the snapshot gets to about 8.3 or 8.4 GB and then I get the error message. Earlier I said this was driving me crazy. Now it's absolutely critical I be able to restore some of these files. I am a graphic designer and I have a logo that I need to "rescue" and use today. Any suggestions besides a gunshot to the head would be appreciated. Thank you, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
