525858 2007-02-19 19:17:00 I do 2 things .

Ghost my C:

Backup docs, install files, pics, accounts, etc etc to my portable HDD . Some of this also goes onto CD or DVD but I trust the HDD more .

Nero is used to put stuff on the optical media . Windows Explorer is used for the HDD .

Do they have computers on pirate ships(eye patch).
You would need a small foder to copy to DVD,at least I couldn't the other day due to size.

525861 2007-02-19 23:53:00 What programme do you use & why?.

I use the Backup program built in to windows.

Why?,
As its is easy to use & does a good job & it is reliable :)

525862 2007-02-20 00:01:00 I use Acronis to image my HDD to a DVD or a few DVDs spanned.
I copy the files manually using Nero. Sometimes I just have some files to backup and not a whole new configuration (hardware or software). Creating image files each time so freq., is over the top for myself.
