Thank you Cy. I had not problem backing up the entire thing. It will, however, do me not good if it does not restore properly. It works easy enough.

Seems like it downloaded corrupted both times. If you were = able to back up your entire system using that program that is great. = especially if the files are backed up in Zip format. I looked at the Backup I did = and the files are stored in zip format so that it appears you could actually restore individual files or programs rather easily. I have not used it = to do a complete restore. However when I have some time I might just try = it. Also since it is in zip format, it may NOW have the capability of = doing a complete restore by adding new and only updating the changed files to = your current backup. Now that would be a real asset since that would mean = your next backup would only take minutes instead of hours. I will have to = test that too when I get a chance.
