Guest churin Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 The OS is Windows 2008. I attempted to restore the backup on to a new hard drive and got error messages as follows: Windows Complete Restore failed. Error details: Element not found(0x80070490) I looked in Technet website for a solution but could not find any. Could anyone help me?
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Re: Windows Complete PC Restore failed - Windows 2008 Hello churin, Please describe more details, what kind of backup, data or system state or full computer backup? Domain controller, member or workgroup server?

Guest churin Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Re: Windows Complete PC Restore failed - Windows 2008 Thank you for your response. I am using Windows 2008 as a workstation OS(its settings are modified for this purpose) and created its system backup or a backup of the C: drive partition. The restore process was initiated by booting from the OS setup DVD but ended with that error message.

Guest churin Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Re: Windows Complete PC Restore failed - Windows 2008 Hi, Meinolf, The new hard drive is the same brand but not the same size: Old one is 250GB and the new one is 500GB. The old partition size is 29.8GB and the new partition size is 30.02GB.

Guest churin Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Re: Windows Complete PC Restore failed - Windows 2008 Hello Meinolf, My PC hardware is Opteron 244x2(1.8GHz) and 4GB DDR400. I guess I can use this to try VM. I understood your PC hardware but the rest is not clear to me. May I ask again what the host OS is on which a VM software is installed? What VM software is installed on the host? What OS(es) are/is installed on the VM?

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Re: Windows Complete PC Restore failed - Windows 2008 Hello churin, My test server runs 2003 and Virtual server is installed like a normal application on it. If you run a virtual machine you can install most OS you like so as you install it on real hardware. You need the normal installation software to install VM's.

Guest churin Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Re: Windows Complete PC Restore failed - Windows 2008 Hellow Meinolf, Thank you for the reference links. My questions so far are based on the assumption that you are using Virtual PC because I was not aware of another virtualization software or Virtual Server. Sorry for my repeated off-target questions.
