   EV> EV> I read something the other day about an option I could select in the   
   EV> EV> XP BACKUP Program that in an emergency could restore Everything if I   
   EV> EV> had made the BACKUP with that setting.   
      
   EV> BR> Windows 7 will do that (Create Image option) but not XP backup   
   EV> BR> that I know of. I don't do backups under XP as it runs in a VM   
   EV> BR> and gets backed up by Win 7, sorry. My understanding is that   
   EV> BR> the old NTBACKUP is better for XP, and for all I know IS the   
   EV> BR> default backup used, dunno. If not, you might try it :)   
      
   EV>Howdy! Ben,   
      
   EV>I just checked Properties for   
   EV>Start - Accessories - System Tools - Backup   
   EV>and NTBACKUP is the program I used.   
      
   EV>The Title Bar just said BACKUP when I was fooling with it the other day   
   EV>but after reading Your Reply I checked and NTBACKUP it is.   Thanks!   
      
   I will have to check that one out. For the Wifes XP machine and the XP   
   machine I use at Church I have been using the old DOS program XCOPY to   
   do data file backups both to a Flach drive installed in the back of the   
   computers and for the church machine another Flash Drive I use as an off   
   site backup. I have clone Hard Drives for both machines I do with a TI   
   Boot CD
