Clint, making a full HD backup to CD-R with Take Two is probably easier than
"falling off a log". It takes about 20 minutes per CD then tells you to make
a emergency boot floppy, copies all files needed to boot and run Take Two
restore and has a verify feature to test the boot floppy and check the
backup data. This is on a 700mhz system with an external usb Sony CD-RW 4x.

Clint, I have Easy CD Creator 5 which includes Take Two but
have not used
that part of it, the help file says you can make a complete
backup to CD in
three easy steps and then do a full restore or a selective
restore. I'll try
it at home this evening and post the results. The parts of
Easy CD Creator
that I have used work well with no problems.

Right now I am checking out Adaptec's (Roxio) "Take Two".
Looks MUCH simpler than Ghost.  Can anyone tell me if it
works like Ghost and will create an exact image of a HD like
Ghost than can be restored?

I didn't realize that you were going to transfer everything
from one HD to
another, sounds like a good way to do it if you get it to
work. I use
Laplink to do that by installing Laplink then clone directly
from one drive
to another. Works well but only if you have Laplink of
course.

I do that, but the best way and fastest way is to make an
'image' of a new HD then 'restore' it to a new HD.  No
installation of windows or any programs, settings, etc is
needed if you do that.  It 'restores' automatically to
another HD or your newly formatted existing drive in case of
a HD or OS failure.  You run the program, and you don't need
to do or install anything, the new HD is created sector by
sector as the old one was.

Wouldn't you be better off using a CD-RW disk so you can keep
it up to date?
I don't do a full HD backup but do keep a backup of
Quickbooks and Quicken
using the built in backup command. I would think Ghost would
work well that
way since the CD-RW is set up to be used as a hard drive.

I Can't get that far.  I made the FLOPPY boot disk, and boot
from that and got to the 'interface' in DOS, but there are
too many options there I know nothing about.  I cannot find
the simple info on just how to get it started, how to start
copying to cdr disks!  108 page manual and nothing in it
about all these 'options' I see or simply how to get started.

No,  but did you make the first disk in the set bootable that
is it can run
from the time that your computer is turned on before the OS
starts
