Making simply system restore backups....

[Mark V]

Really what I want is a foolproof simple and above all reliable
program to enable me to do incremental backups, that can be
restored from bare drive to full working system in just the time
it takes to copy the data back.

I don't see why it should be hard, except it seems to be.

Drive Image seems the most promising; but gosh darn, not
incremental, not scheduleable or scriptable, or networkable.

A second hard disk drive and Acronis True image may be what you need.
I don't own True Image (still on old Drive Image), but have seen some
good reports FWIW.

Have you done a hunt!?
I know of
WinRescue - superwin.com
or R-Drive image - r-tt.com
I havent tried either! Let us know how it goes!
I use Drive Image once a month which is a breeze for the whole system
and can also be done if any major change is contemplated - and then
data files the moment they are created by straight copy over to a
different disk.
