I had some messy problems with bootable True Image 2009 when trying to recover to a new disk in the T61 where it would be used. Following Bruce's advice, I used BootIt NG v1.86a to discover a partition problem and correct it. Once it was corrected, I used a newer bootable True Image (2009.9796_S) sent me by Acronis to do the recovery. All came out well, it just took way too long to figure out what to do.
I posted the solution to the problem on this list on 10/1/2009, Subject was Backup-recovery software for T61 . Previous posts from me describe the problem.
