Vista SP1 -- hiccups

I recently upgraded to service-pack 1. Everything seemed kosher, but now
that I have some mileage on upgraded Vista chassis ...

I use Acronis True Image 10 to backup my partitions. I no longer trust
Acronis 10 under SP1. It runs, but seems confused. When I try to explore
backed-up archives, Acronis 10 freezes up. ( I opened a chat session with
Alex, an MS software counselor. He spent more time trying to squeeze my
phone # out of me than it later took for him to say - sorry, go to vendor
for help.)

Windows Mail is acting differently. Let's see if this will post.

CNN alerted,

Currently Acronis True Image is Version 11. Version 11 is Vista compatible.
Do not know if version 10 is Vista compatible. Suggest you contact Acronis

Did Windows Update offer the machine SP1 or did you choose to install it
manually?

What did Acronis Support have to say about the problem?

Yes indeed, True Image 10 is Vista compatible. Their web pages have not a
hint of SP1 issues.

I have opened a "ticket" with Acronis Support. From what I have read on the
'Net forums, Acronis support isn't all that great. I will wait a few more
days and see for myself.

Thanks,
netlink

(SP1 is screwing up my reply postings ... gosh darn it!)

I received and installed SP1 through Windows Update.

I am still waiting for Acronis Support to get back to me. I have read that
their support isn't all that great. Acronis web pages have nothing about
SP1 issues. :\

(Let's see if Windows Mail will post this)
