Yes I tried restoring the empty images from you, but I haven't tried verifying the MBR with Disk Dir. Just this one little wrinkle to iron out.
Rather than retrying the same rescue disk, burn a new one and see if that works.Thanks so much for all the work you have put into this.
That ensures your computer to boot from the DVD (or CD) instead of the hard drive as it normally does. If it is not, reorder the list so the optical drive is first.

Generally you’ll want to select an ISO image, but if you are creating a custom WinPE image, you have the option to create a WIM image file.
If you have compatibility issues with the machine's hardware and the WinPE media, you’ll be able to add any specific drivers you need:.You’ll then be able to Create WinPE automatically, and the WinPE preparation will start.(For instructions on Windows AIK, refer to this article.)
If not, you will be prompted to download and install it. If it’s already installed, Acronis Disk Director 12 will detect it.
You can find instruction on how to do that here. You can also create a Linux-based boot media disk using Acronis Disk Director 12. With WinPE-based media you can boot a crashed machine or one without any operating system.
It is fully certified to work with all Windows operating systems up to and including Windows 10, and can run in the Windows Pre-installation Environment (WinPE). While there are other tools available, we’ll be using Acronis Disk Director 12.
A software utility that will create the boot media.A blank DVD or CD that will become your boot disk,.Your computer must have an optical read/write drive,.To create a bootable disk, you’ll need three things: (You can also store your rescue “disk” on a USB drive, but the process for creating and using USB boot media is different.)
