Operation Manual

 Your old and new hard drives work in the same controller mode (for example, IDE or AHCI).

Before you start the procedure, please ensure that you have:

 Bootable rescue media.

Refer to Creating bootable rescue media (p. 16) for details.

 Backup of your system disk created in disk mode.

To create this backup, switch to disk mode, and then select the hard drive that contains your

system partition. Refer to Backing up disks and partitions (p. 38) for details.

To transfer your system from an MBR disk to a UEFI-booted computer:

1. Boot from the rescue media in UEFI mode and select Acronis True Image.

2. Run the Recovery wizard and follow the instructions described in Recovering your system (p. 67).

3. On the What to recover step, select the check box next to the disk name to select the entire

system disk.

In the example below, you need to select the Disk 1 check box:

4. On the Finish step, click Proceed.

When the operation finishes, the destination disk is converted to GPT style so that it is bootable in

UEFI.

After the recovery, please ensure that you boot your computer in UEFI mode. You may need to

change the boot mode of your system disk in the user interface of the UEFI boot manager.
