How To Access Protected File In Mounted Disk Image
Sep 21, 2005
I protected my personal files in WXP and made an Acronis true image of the disk. After a disk crash, I rebuilt a new disk instead of using the image but want to get to my personal files by using the Acronis image mount utility. The tool works pretty well, the image looks like drive "G" when mounted and I can see all of my files, except for the personal ones. My new WXP load has the same user name, password, and computer name as the old one did. However, the NTFS security will not let me see or take ownership of my personal files. I dont want to have to restore the old image just to get my files but will if I have to. Any ideas for an easier way?

Unfortunatly, a major thunderstorm passed thru my area and my computer was shut down hard and when I brought it up Windows was trashed, missing system files, some noise about disk-drive errors, etc. So I had to install Windows on another drive on the system. I can copy files from anywhere on the drive to the new windows drive except for "my documents" WEHRE OF COURSE Visual Studio Projects, Word documents, IPod, etc, everything, my important stuff is being kept being kept. The message I get is "Access is denied"
When I bring the system up in Safe Mode with networking and look at the security permission tab for that folder I see that my SID Is not there. When I try and add it (my user ID) it validates it and it looks like I can now have access to it, great, but when I click apply the response is "media is write protected" cannot apply permission changes. When I try and copy a file from my new windows drive to the original I get the message Drive is write protected
Try to defrag it from new windows - same message
Try to repair it from new windows - same message
Can anyone tell me where I could find this media write protect switch and where to change it. Windows XP, NTFS all drives, SCSI

I just discovered that the hard drive in my computer is mounted in the vertical direction on my desktop computer.Is this good or bad.Seems like it should be mounted in the horizontal direction.Only had it a week so no problems yet but wondering what the long term effect would be.

I downloaded truecrypt and created a file-hosted container and mounted it in truecrypt.
1) What exactly is "mounted" and "unmounted" mean? I mean I know I can't move files into the drive unless its mounted, but is there something wrong with having it mounted all the time. Is there a time when its supposed to unmounted?
2) I am considering encryption the entire windows xp including boot partition. Is this a good idea or is there a significant decrease in performance. Speed is a concern for me. Also, will this make it difficult for me to install ubuntu later on using dual boot (grub loader)?
Here is my current setup: 160GB 7200rpm hard drive 8mb buffer
Current Partitions:
C: (100GB, NTFS, windows xp pro)
D: (60GB, NTFS, data storage)
K: (4GB, file-hosted container, with container being in the C: drive) (this 4GB is part of the 100GB of C).................

I want to take an Image of the entire Hard Disk and make a CD of it. When this CD is put on a brand new computer, it should, without human intervention recreate the same Hard Disk info including partitions, OS, and any software that was installed such as, Antivirus, Databases, programming environments( C, Turbo C++, .NET , Java etc.). Now, I know that there are softwares that help in taking such an Image of the Hard Disk. What I want is info on
1. which one is best?
2. whether it is available for free?(doesn't matter whether it is a trial version.)
3. if I download it from the net will it work?

I was wondering if there is a good way to store a disk image of a hard drive either within that drive or on a server and have it overwrite the booting drive on every boot? I work at schools with computer labs and sometimes the kids mess up the computers and we have to run a Ghost Multicast session to wipe the drive. But everyone has been asking me for a way to wipe the computers clean on each boot? File loss is not an issue, as kids save their work to thumbdrives and network shared folders.

I currently have 2 x 250GB hard drives; the first with XP and Vista on separate partitions, and the second for data/media. Is it safe to restore an OS disk image without removing the partitions i.e. restoring an XP disk image back to its original partition whilst keeping the Vista partition intact. I'm trying to find a safe/efficient way of backing up my OS's by saving disk images to an external hard drive, so if something goes wrong, ie doesn't boot, I can restore an image via the other OS.

I have some kind of puter glitch in that when I restarted my desktop, it now goes into a virtual loop of resetting itself. I have taken out the master drive, put it into another PC, and ran diagnostics/virus scans/worm checks/etc., all coming up negative. But no matter what I've done (won't go into safe mode, won't do last known configuration, etc.) it still resets itself. I've now started the task of taking off all of my files & data so I can send the PC back to be fixed (unless someone has a good idea of what to try next). My concern lies in the registry/win.ini files that "tell" the PC how I want/have my files & programs. If I make a disk image of the drive, will that "reset" my settings when my PC is returned? I don't want to have to reinstall everything and redo all my settings, etc. (I-Tunes, MS Office, etc.). Or will that potentially cause it to have the same problem over again?

I have a problem with understanding the differences between these words (actions), when I use Retrospect,( a backup program,) I cannot read any files since the backup file turns into a huge something. When I backup, I mean I copy my files from one drive to an external drive and I can always restore them or copy them to another computer. These are for my files.
When I want to re-install a program, I take the original disk or the zip file I downloaded, stored on CD or another external hard drive.

I am trying to burn an iso image to a DVD+R disk using NERO 7.0 Ultra Edition and for some reason when I go to burn the image, it tells me I need a CD-R or CD-RW. I just bought some DVD disks for the first time yesterday. I have used regular 800Mb CDs to burn iso images before with no problem. What's the deal with the DVD iso burning?

I have copied few files in the form of .ISO from CDs but when i try writing them on to CD the size exceeds 700 MB. How come this is happening when the software in the original cd is less than 700 MB (Being a CD) and while writing the image the size exceeds the size of an CD.

One of the best features of Win XP is to use any image from any image folder as your desktop background, wallpaper. For some reason this feature has stopped working and of course I have no idea why. I haven't changed any folder options or made any changes for that matter.

I run a specific batch file at startup that attempts to copy a file to lace one that is under control of a running program. I get the messageThe process cannot access the file because it is being used by anotherprocess."How do I successfully write the file? I know that the way you are supposed to do it is to close the program, make the transfer then restart the program. But how do you do that when you don't know the programand you don't know how it starts in the first place.

I usually backup my weeks work on Friday afternoons. What I do is run a "search" for all files created or modified within the last 7 days and then "copy" all relevant files to a folder on an external hard drive, and then burn a CD.
Everynow and then, I get the following message. "Cannot Copy File: Cannot Read From the Source File or Disk"

After doing 'One Button Checkup' I get an error. Missing File:"CProgram FilesCommonFilesInstallShieldProfessinalRunTime701Intel 32DotNet.Installer.exe" (cannot access a necessary file "mscoree.dll") Win Doctor is unable to find & replace it, so it must have been deleted after Installation or later, ..... it doesn't seem to affect the computer so far, is it necessary to replace & would I be able to extract & replace it from original Windows XP disc, or would it only be possible by re-installing Windows XP?
