Absalutly no sucsess

I have had this program for weeks now and yet to make one back up! Every time i try anything and i mean any kind of back up i get

 

First of all which version of TI do you have?

secondly, check in Services.msc that you actually have RPC set to automatic.

Scheduler2 the Acronis component that looks after tasks depends on this running. It must be automatic - manual won't work.

To get to services - go to the start button \run\'services.msc' (don't type the apostrophies), scroll down to Remote Procedure Call.

Note you might also need to enable COM objects as well.

version TI Home 10.0

Do I have to restart my computer after i do this ?

 

If you have clicked on the start service link then no. You can start the service yourself, double click on the service and you'll get the choice of starting or stopping the service. Sometimes it is a link in the top left ahdn corner of the page.

If not then a reboot will automatically start the services.

It is always a good idea to reboot your computer after making any system changes. Even if it works without rebooting, reboot and make sure it still works before leaving the machine (and forgetting what you did, if it doesn't work tomorrow when you restart).

 

I don`t know who you are bodgy but you sure know what you are talking about...You don`t know how helpful your step by step instruction was...A million Thank u`s

One more question, Do you know, if my hard drive was to crash would it possible to boot from my external hard drive that i am saving this backup to?

 

In case of a crash, what you need to do is create the bootable Rescue TI cd - before the crash. You would then use this cd to boot and then you would restore/recover the image from the usb drive to your C drive.

 

First of all I would like to apologies for misspelling
"Absolutely no success"! I guess I was annoyed at the time but now things have calmed down
I did what you said Bodgy and it worked fine for a while but it will not stay at "automatic" It goes back to "Disabled" any ideas ?
Thanks.
