Hello Torrance,

As I understand you try to create a bootable media, but the .iso file created seems to be small.

I will be glad to help you!

Unfortunately you didn't indicate the product that you use for media creation. I will give you the links for the last version of Acronis true Image 2016. If you use another product or version, you can find the documentation here http://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/

First of all, please pay attention to this procedure of iso creating http://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/ATI2016/index.html#26974.html. After creation of iso file you have to burn it to cd or dvd disc.

You also have a possibility to download the .iso file from your account https://account.acronis.com/products if the product is registered.

I recommend you to try to create a bootable media on USB flash drive. If it works, I advise you to pay your attention to the third party software that you use for burning an .iso file.

When a bootable media created, use this article to Arrange boot order in BIOS http://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/ATI2016/index.html#8462.html

Again, for anyone experiencing this problem, I recommend contacting our support to get this resolved.
