Has anyone managed to download this yet ? - failing that, is the
"update" the full version that can be installed over the existing (if
any) installation ?
TIA

Small update - VNU's ftp is just shit slow - it does appear to be the
same file as you can download from Acronis direct
Ric
well spotted. this is a great application and you can't beat free.
so long as there FTP server speeds up a bit Ill be very happy.
Now Norton Ghost's been ruined this is *the* drive imaging program....

I must point out that v8 (IIRC) didn't work on some hardware, so the
odds are that v7 will work on less - I have a SATA Dell box that could
only be backed up by v9

"Due to widespread exposure of this free Computeractive download within

been forced to temporarily withdraw this promotion due to a) the
overwhelming demand placed on our server and b) that this is a closed

Technically that would be a bit naughty, although I don't actually need
the copy I downloaded and registered... I would be happy to transfer the
account to anyone who wanted it :-p (hmm, I wonder if it was transferred
from one user to the next on request by simply changing the email
address its registered to...)
Register via Acronis themselves though, and download the "update" direct
from them - its the same file.

Eh....Could this be pre-planned, an integral part of the whole publicity
campaign? After the first, say, 50, downloads, that's it....no more. Now
both Acronis and ComputerActive benefit. You and I gain nothing except a
bitter taste in the month! !#&*%^"$
It says "temporarily" but then it also says "for ComputerActive readers
only"!

I couldn't find it either. Could Colin Wilson confirm that the whole True
Image 7 download (not upgrade for True Image 6) is available there?

Acronis True Image v9.0.0.2337 appears to be here:

Go through the account options using the drop-down on the top right of
Acronis's site - click on (IIRC) registered programs, and it will list
TrueImage v7 - clicking on that in the main window will then let you
access the download link for the "update".
The file sizes offered by ComputerActive and Acronis were the same (I
eventually got onto the "official" ComputerActive FTP link but it keeled
over 13Mb into the download, but I was able to confirm the file sizes
for both in that time).

Which link did you click to download True Image 7.0?
I tried different approaches without success. For example, on the My
Products page (Home > Account > My Products) these two produced
a 16KB text code file, using a download manager or manually onto the
desktop. Neither did disabling the Windows own firewall, ZoneAlarm, a
pop-up blocker or the ActiveX control make any difference:
1) "Last available update: build #638, 2004-10-01. Get update" and
2) "Download installation file if you lost your copy of the program. (File
size: 21.57 MB)"

I used the 'get upate' link and it downloaded and is now installed.
Question - is the product or serial code the same number for everyone?

Yes, clicking "Get update" > "Save target as... " on the shortcut menu
worked.(Don't remember what I did last time I tried this which produced the
16KB text file). Using this route doesn't suit me unfortunately because my
connection is a dial-up; worse still, this is playing up at the moment (for
the last one month, still being investigated!) download speed being 3.7KB/s!
I'm downloading the 21.75MB True Image now using this manual route, not with
my usual Net Transport. I fear when the NTL download time limit of 2 hours
is up (the file needs just under 3 hours to download) the line will be cut
and there being no resume function, the whole downloading process will be
incomplete and the unfinished file canceled.
Is anybody using the FTP Net Transport (not the regular Net Transpot)? It
might be possible that the wrong file I got downloaded using the regular Net
Transport was because the file had to be handled with the FTP Net Transport.
I don't know how to set this up though. Anyone?
Well, at least the free download offer is always available, not to be
limited by ComputerActive till the 17th October!
You_First, the registration serial number of my copy of True Image 7.0 (yet
to be downloaded) is: DY6CW-655UW-U3BEP-2RMNM-CXVBM

FWIW, the serial number I got was different -

I downloaded it earlier using FDM and it supports resume, etc.

True Image 7.0 is now in the bag!
The download, install and first run of Free Download Manager went
smoothly, so did the download and install of the cloner (1 hr 43 min).
