Hi Barry,If you are using Windows XP, it has its own backup utility which is very accessible. If it is already installed on your PC, you can find it under System Tools. If it is not there, you'll need to install it from your XP CD, which is a fairly simple thing to do.

I back up to an external hard drive and this utility works quite well for me.
