How to solve Acronis OS Selector Fails to Load MBR3 error, No configuration file

42) Acronis OS Selector Fails to Load ( MBR3 error, No configuration file )

The most probable reason for the encountered issue is defragmentation of the partition where Acronis OS Selector was installed. Acronis OS Selector records the absolute address of the following configuration files in the MBR, so one should not move these files or defragment them:

FAT:

- bootsect.sys (BOOTWIZ folder)

NTFS:

- bootwiz.sys (root directory)
- bootwiz.cfg (BOOTWIZ)
- mouse.com (BOOTWIZ)
- ossmain.exe (BOOTWIZ)
- parter.exe (BOOTWIZ)
- x.bin (BOOTWIZ)

To solve this issue you should reactivate Acronis OS Selector from Bootable Rescue disk (Tools -> OS Selector).

There is a simple workaround to prevent such situations in future:

- Create a small (not less than 10 Mb) FAT/FAT32/NTFS partition on the hard drive. No matter in the beginning of the drive or not;
- Run Acronis OS Selector installation program (Start -> Programs -> Acronis -> Acronis Disk Director -> Install Acronis OS Selector), uninstall it and reboot;
- Run the installation once again in Custom mode and choose the created small partition as the installation target;
- Reboot the computer and never defragment that partition.
