Nov 16, 2013 10:17 AM in response to marksw59by j-sto,I had exactly the same problem. I went ahead and clicked through and created a new name. In my case, it turned out my new HD was too small, so it then gave me a chance to deselect some of the files from the back up. Then it all worked. Keep trying and I'm sure you can get it to work too. It did take me a couple tries to get it right.
