Thank you, Grover! I'll do the Rescue CD validation later today for my latest backup and will continue doing it periodically if it appears to be...
I guess to some degree I'll have to trust that the restore function will work, since I don't have either a spare disk or a partition to try it on....
Thank you yet again, Grover--for both responses. I often use Google and do it well, but I hadn't thought of it for this area. I appreciate the...
Thank you, Grover! I'm perfectly happy NOT to include spaces or dots in my filenames. I remember some years back when spaces were a real issue;...
Thank you, Grover! I did that today, with a correctly done filename. Which reminds me: Why is it that one can't uses spaces or dots in the...
Well, I tried to rename it in Windows Explorer but got the error message "Cannot rename [filename]: It is being used by another person or program....
I'm not sure what you mean. I did the backup through the Wizard, naming it after choosing the drive to back up to. When I go to Windows...
Well, I already screwed up one thing. I did do a full backup of the entire disk, even validating it (and I had already named the external drive);...
I did it, and I thank everyone for their help! I created the boot CD and tried to boot my Dell from it. It didn't work; the computer went straight...
So...is it looking like those of us with Windows XP shouldn't bother with 8101? Jo-Anne
Thank you, Bruce! I checked the Dell manual, and it said: "1 Turn on (or restart) your computer. 2 When the blue DELL™ logo appears, press <F2>...
Thank you! Jo-Anne
Thank you all! Once I create the boot CD, I assume I'll learn quickly if my current computer boots off the CD-ROM first... Question for Earthling:...
I'm about to create a bootable rescue CD for my Windows XP Home system. If I buy a notebook computer with XP Pro, will the same CD work for that...
Um...so now there are two builds--8064 and 8101--that we can't access?
Thank you both! What a great idea to use the hub cable on the drive! Jo-Anne
Thank you, MudCrab! I'll definitely keep that in mind as I do the backups. It's good to know ahead of time what can go wrong. I don't like using...
using the bootable rescue CD Wow! Thank you, Grover, for doing not only the manual but the updates.The new BR1 image is great too. (I notice more...
Thank you both! I did register ATI before I did anything else. Thank you, Grover, for the link to BR1. That image is in your beginner's guide...
Thank you all again! Actually, I AM working my way through Grover's guides, and I thank him separately; they're perfect for getting started....
Thank you! It helps tremendously to know not only what things should look like but that I can't screw up the process. I checked the build shortly...
Thank you all! I'm so glad I asked! To my inexperienced eyes, it appeared that ATI itself had marked the full disk and then only one partition....
Thank you, John! It is indeed a Dell. I wish Acronis had checked that box along with the C:\ drive's. I'll just do it on my own when I make my...
I'm using Windows XP SP3. I have the boxed version of ATI, which means that the CD should be bootable (so I haven't created one of my own). Since...
Thank you, everyone! Now I understand why I couldn't find "delete" for my first post but could for a reply. Jo-Anne
