A number of months ago I backed up my system after a complete rebuild.  The 
file generated has the extension .v2i .  Last week my system crashed and 
when I went to restore the backup with Acronis True Image is wouldn't 
recognise the file (I thought this was the application I used).

Has anyone come across a backup program than generates files with a .v2i 
extension?  I am almost ready to panic as the backup contains all of my 
digital photos and genealogy research.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Steven
