Client restore - the system could not find the path specified

[Leo]

Hi,

 

I've never had to do a restore before but today the hard disk on a client PC failed. I created a new partition with the same name/drive letter and tried to do a restore. WHS 2011 listed my backups as having been successful but when I try the restore it gets to 81% before telling me that "the system cannot find the path specified".

 

Searching for this issue shows other people had the same problem but I couldn't find any solutions. Could someone tell me which path the WHS 2011 is referring to? Is it refusing because the partition is on a new disk?

 

I don't know if it makes any difference but the partition is a data partition with just documents including the one I was working on!!!

 

Is it possible to browse the actual files on the server and extract just the one I want?

 

Any help much appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

Leo
