I got the message below when I ran the SFC /scannow as admin. What happens next? Do the files get fixed later, are they marked as bad and left alone or what.

"Windows resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them."

Running a system repair did nothing, and when I run SFC now it says no problems found.

The reason I ask is Acronis True Image Home 2009 seems to crash whenever I try to get it to restore a backup it created. Don't know why it is crashing, but even another Vista install running the software locks up when trying to restore backups made with this system.

Thanks,

OK, but the software seems to work on a fresh Vista install. I have to believe something is being backed up that causes Acronis to crash when accessing it for a restore operation. If I access the backups made on the current install from the new install, Acronis also crashes but does not when accessing backups made on the new install.

There must be something on my current install causing the problem. One install in activated, the bad one, and one is not yet. I sure hope Acronis is not having problems because of the activation!

I did have SP2 installed for one day, so it might have messed things up.

Thanks,
Clark
