I never image a single file but with Nero you have the capability. I seldom image an entire drive or partition either which is why I haven't used Ghost in months. A fresh install I usually Ghost it but I haven't done that in quite awhile. The image file seems a safer way to store files and they take seconds to make. With the patches.... make an image of two. When two more come in just delete the image of the first two and make an image of all four. Seems simple and effective to me ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Age is not a particularly interesting subject. Anyone can get old.
