Have two partitions on the 200 GB external HD.

I'd try writing a recovery point to a conventional USB external HD.

There are reports of conventional cloning to USB external HDs failing because of 240 head HD geometry with IBM laptops. You can't do a reverse clone with Ghost 12 so forget I mentioned it. I must be spending too much time on the True Image forum. Partitions with a drive letter were a problem. On reflection, your partition without a drive letter is probably OK. I have previously restored drives in the exact same manner using the same machine (though the restore point belonged to a Dell M65). \WinNtDevice.cpp(1947): ! IsSystemAccessRestricted(). Error EBAB0013: A test that safeguards the integrity of the program failed unexpectedly. Error EC8F03FA: Cannot read data from the recovery point. Error EC8F03F2: Cannot copy data from the recovery point to the destination. I got into a similar problem:Įrror EC8F178F: Cannot complete the restore of recovery point: \\ethernet_bd\backup\Lenovo\Image\LENOVO-8B39D286_C_Drive010.v2i.

Yesterday (before the CHKDSK) I tried making a restore point on an external netwrok drive and restore from that instead of copying directly. Error EBAB0013: A test that safeguards the integrity of the program failed unexpectedly. Cannot copy source drive to destination location. Error EC8F17B3: Cannot complete copying of Preload (C:\) drive. I try running CHKDSK C: /r and it finds a few minor problems. I want the disk active and MBR copied, as I plan immediately after the copying to replace the existing system disk with the larger one. I specify that it should ignore filesystem checks and invalid sectors. Then I try to use the copy partition function from the existng C: partition to the new unassigned partition. It is mounted in a multibay inserted instead of the dvd-drive and is seen as an intern disk. So I bought a new 200GB disk and partioned it into one 140GB NTFS primary partion (no drive letter assigned) and one extended partion with the rest, whiach has a logical NTFS drive H: taking up all space. It has one large Primary NTFS partion (C:) and one small primary service partion, that I do not intend to use any more. I am running out of space on my 100Gb harddisk on my Leneove thinkpad T60p.
