EV> I read something the other day about an option I could   
    EV> select in the XP BACKUP Program that in an emergency could   
    EV> restore Everything if I had made the BACKUP with that   
    EV> setting.   
      
    ...   
      
    EV> I am glad the folks in this Windows XP echo introduced me

    EV> A 330GB External HDD was the first HDD I bought for making   
    EV> BACKUPs.   
      
    EV> It came Formatted for FAT32 and I've kept it that way in   
    EV> case I ever have a need to move more data that what a DVD   
    EV> or Thumbdrive could have on them, and the data was going to   
    EV> be put on a older computer which had a FAT32 HDD in it.   
      
    With an image, most programs will restore it correctly, no   
    matter what disk format the backup drive has. I use Norton   
    Ghost, and save NTSF to Fat 32 drives, and restore with no   
    problem.   
      
    EV> My last try was a Failure too.   
    EV> The Log shows a bunch of files wasn't copied.   
      
    EV> I tried at least, but I will stay with TI for my BACKUPs   
    EV> for now.   
      
    I will have to find something other than Norton, since what I   
    have does not recognize SATA. True Image maybe it.
