Hi Darryl, I just did a backup fo my Windows XP using the ERUN program. http://home.t-online.de/home/lars.hederer/erunt/ It was a 55MB backup to my CDR, i try to rember to do it every couple of days. It takes so much room because it records all the information from the Registy. Mike ~ It is a good day if I learned something new.
