mailman1988 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Point simple. If I upgrade an exsiting Vista PC to Win8, will my client back up to my WHS v1 ? Has anyone tested this? Conversly, will Win8 restore from V1? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nlitend1 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Yes, yes, done, done. This is very good news. I did not have the same luck trying to backup win8 installed to vhd. I did this on my win7 laptop for testing and even though I was booting from the win8 vhd, the backups would not work. The connector installed, but the backups would never get past 0%.

nlitend1 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Yes, yes, done, done. So I did a clean install of Win8 and now the backup gets to 54% and says "The backup failed because of an error reading data from your hard drive. To resolve this problem, try running "chkdsk /f /r" on each of your hard drives and restart your computer." Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
