GMan's laudatory message below, reminded me to set up some automatic
incremental backups.
I only got to "My computer" - "Disks and Partitions" when Acronis
decided to HANG.
I tried inserting the Acronis Disk which gave options of "Modify",
"Repair" and "Remove", so chose Repair.
It worked away for a while then HUNG. I tried again and it repeated.
I tried "Remove", it came back with
""Another Installation is in progress. You must complete THAT
installation before continuing this"
I tried "Control Panel" - "Add /Remove Programs" and got the same
message as above.
(I had NOT touched the brandy)
Has anyone experienced this?? or have any helpful suggestions please??
