hello group, i have had my vista laptop for a year now, i desided to back up some files not copy, but a back up of certain files. well i ran the built in vista backup software, and it wanted to backup the whole of my C:\ drive, i cant even choose what file i would like to back up, and i hear that NERO wont install on vista, any idea's on how i can back up only the files i want to backup, or a vista compatible backup/ burning software thanks in advance |

The 'complete pc backup' is only available on vista business or ultimate versions. If you are running another version than those stated, you can only backup files. Nero 8 will install on vista but I would use the built in backup if it is available to you on your version. If you don't have those versions, then I would use symantec ghost 12. It works and I have had success with it.

Older versions of Nero, however, are incompatible. > any idea's on how i can back up only the files i > want to backup, or a vista compatible backup/ burning software I think Acronis TrueImage is the best backup product currently available. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup |
