Discwizard - restoring using boot disc and external HDD

I have two destops, one with 3 Seagate HDs and another with 2.  I have used Discwizard for a number of years including before the Acronis version to make images of my C drive.  I have only once had to use them and restored using the CD boot disc which worked fine.

 

I have now bought an HP laptop which has a WD hard drive. I therefore bought a Seagate external drive and have made an image of the laptop Cdrive using Discwizard and also made a boot disc.  However on testing the boot disc I find it will not recognise the presence of the Seagate drive externally and stops booting.  I guess I can still restore using Discwizard within Windows (Vista), but it would be nice to be able to do it from the boot disc too.

 

Any way round this?
