Hi Sorry about the cross post on this subject. A friend of mine uses jaws, he has until now relied on the windows backup utility to back up his files etc but it has failed, he has lost his files because his pc has crashed and he may not be able to retrieve them. What other programs are accessible with hal and jaws for making a complete backup of the computer and possibly making an image of the whole system? I personally use norton goback and am also interested in the replies to this post as although I make sure I back up my personal stuff on pen drives, I really need to image my system too. Thanks in advance Regards Adrien You can get me off list at: adriencollins22160@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or adriencollins06@xxxxxxx or adrien_collins@xxxxxxxxxxx I support cobweb, why don't you?
