Hello:

Here's an item from the Win 98 general newsgroup that may be of interest to
some.

Acronis True Image v8 supports Win 98 thru XP, including ME. However, while
it supports ATA drives, it may not support SATA drives. I'm not sure.

It seems to be a multi-step process, to fill out the request in the link
below, then to fill out a free registration form, and then to login and
download the free version of Acronis v8 from the list of registered
software, but it does work.

Cheers,
O.J.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

To all out there. Gone thro' the registration procedure; couldn't find a
link. Got to "chat" with an agent, who said "sorry that promotion is over"

If you already received your license key, go to the following link and
register your account. Once your account is registered, login to your
account, click Registered Products, and then you can download the
installation file from there.

https://www.acronis.com/my/index.html

By the way, the information that the agent provided is not accurate.
You can still use the following link to get Acronis 8 Personal for free.
Keep in mind that this is an OEM version, so some of the functionality
is limited. For example, if you backup to a network drive, this version
won't let you do that.

Tks TomV - It's d/l ing now.

BTW, I found another d/l site at
http://www.tipandtrick.net/2008/acr...uine-non-crack-serial-number-and-download/hr/

Change the language to US English and followed the link to
trueimage8.0_p_en.exe halfway down.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

Just FYI,
I have been using Acronis True Image for years and love it. Really
a great app. It is a little 'odd' is some of the language used, don't
remember the specifics, but, it is when you are performing the backup.
Besides that little quirk, it is a very good app!!! I am still using ver. 8
and I have ver. 10 on the wife's machine, both being backed up to another
internal drive, as well as, an external.
Heirloom, old and it's a 'bacon saver'

Does a free version of Acronis ship with some brand of external harddrive?
I'm too cheap to spend $49.95

"Does a free version of Acronis ship with some brand of external harddrive?
> I'm too cheap to spend $49.95"

Oh, yes, 'fer sure.' They also send you a brand new machine with a 32" LCD
monitor, your choice of an Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad-core processor QX9650
or an AMD Phenom Quad-Core 9850, your choice of red or blue LED accented
Armor case with liquid cooling and it's own dedicated power supply furnished
by your local electrical provider at no cost for two years. The machine has
8 Gig of DDR-3 Ram and will have the latest offering from ATI of 2 or 4
GDDR4 Vivo video cards, sound card and speakers (Dolby 10.4 Beta), a year's
subscription to Computer Shopper, 4 years of free in home service w/live-in
technician (your choice of Hooter's or Chippendale qualified), a Bentley
limo w/driver, a new home in Beverly Hills Brentwood and another on your own
island in the Florida Keys, and a Walmart gift card.
Heirloom, old and I have some really nice ocean front
property for sale in Oklahoma, also.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

Actually I'm reading your replies on my Vista machine. My ISP can only offer
3mps in my area or I'd go for more. If you'd forget the sarcasm, Iomega does
include backup software. I asked the question because I'm buying a 2tet hard
drive and thought maybe Acronis had a deal with a hardware firm.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

Sorry, Corday, just couldn't help it. I have never heard of any software,
like Acronis, offering free hardware with free software!! I have seen a few
offers of something 'with a purchase', but, never free with free. And, just
out of curiosity, what is '2tet' ?.....I haven't a clue......terabyte,
maybe? If so, it seems if you could afford a 2 terabyte HD, you ought to be
able to swing a $50 external drive.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

Well ackshully Corday, I was poking at Heirloom, and used you as a
*springboard*. But I do have to agree with him that if you can afford
both what you are using and what you are thinking of buying, then $50 is
peanuts. I can spend that in no time on stuff for my hobby.

In fact, the bracelet I am in the middle of making would cost you more
than that. But you don't strike me as the *pearls and Swarovski
crystals* type....LOL.

If you are going to hang around this rather remote news group, you will
have to lighten up cuz we zing each other quite often. And have known
each other for about 7 years, I guess.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

OK. I'll spring for the $49.95. I used to frequent this group 2000-2003 and
still use ME as my wife dominates the Vista "gamer" unit.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

I'm just a little curious as I can't see where you've explained why the
free copy of Acronis TrueImage v8 mentioned in this thread doesn't meet
your needs. I do realise that Acronis is now at v11 but in many cases
newer versions often add little other than glitz and perhaps speed.

Note although I do in fact have access to a legal copy of Acxronis v11 I
am not an Acronis user, using instead BootIt NG (BING) as my
boot/partition manager and for imagining.

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

I started out with v8 which I got cheap because it was an older version then
did the upgrade path to v10 from Acronis. I agree with you Heirloom it's a
great program, that and my external drive <g>

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

LOL.....just made my *dream* bracelet and earrings, using Swarovski
copper crystals and largish copper pearls. Not selling all that much
for a couple of reasons. I don't show my creations to many people cuz
then they ask me for one and I don't want this passion to become a
chore. I don't often wear jewellery and no one sees it either. Pearls
and jeans don't go together, grin. But I do make some semi-precious
*jeans jewellery* as well. I should make Mikey something in crystals
for an earring, chuckle.

Also, I am still trying to build up an inventory, so long as I can keep
people from buying what I am making. Not quite ready for a craft fair
yet. I am so bloody disorganized!! (G) I should have all of the
prices on a data base for the bits and pieces. This is one expensive
hobby, so will have to sell a lot of it. But I do love it.

Just met a young neighbour who is half way thru her medical doctor
course and she asked me if I would teach her how to work with wire. I
enjoy teaching others, to be honest. She is going to be a surgeon, so
when she finishes her residency in 5 years, maybe we could swap stuff.
<g>

How the cross-stitching coming, Madame?? Or are you making baby
sweaters and the like. And how is the babe....

Re: Free version of Acronis v8

<lol> Yes the cross stitch is on the back burner at the moment, in fact I'm
half way through one of a Barn Owl but of course the knitting for Cameron
took over. <g>

He's doing well, growing and generally a fairly good baby, they came round
for a visit yesterday. He's only a week and a half old but I've already seen
him more than my other grandson who's ten <g>

Busy at the moment having to re-tile the kitchen floor so that's fun, I
don't think <g>
