Okay, that's more clear, however just to recap... you have a "true image home 2013 tib" image on the USB Drive that you want to restore to a newly created empty VM, right? Then boot the VM from the necessary boot media that can restore the image while at the same time can see the USB Drive if attached to the VM or as a Windows Shared Resource. I use Symantec Norton Ghost on Physical Machines and when I boot a VM with an ISO Image containing Ghost (and other utilities) I can restore the image whether it's on Optical Media, External FireWire/USB and or a Network Share. I do not know if True Image can do the same, although I'd assume it can too.
I have also partitioned/formatted the virtual hard disk and them mounted it under Windows and used Ghost32.exe to drop the image onto the virtual hard disk and then unmounted it and the run the VM. That said however, if this is an image from a physical machine and you drop it on a Virtual Machine then it will not boot properly until you rectify the Hardware Driver Issues and Windows Registry Entries (assuming this is a Windows image).
