I used the WindowsXP backup utility.

In this case you must use the same tool to restore your
files, perhaps to a differen location. You should also pay attention to the basic rule of backups: A backup is almost useless unless a) It gets tested immediately after the initial configuration, and b) It gets tested regularly, e.g. twice each year.

Thank you. I will try that, and I will remember to test each backup. Again,
thank you for the help. "Pegasus (MVP)" wrote: > In this case you must use the same tool to restore your > files, perhaps to a differen location.
