Running Win2000 Pro--Tried running the Backup program--
START--PROGRAMS--ACCESSORIES--SYSTEM TOOLS--BACKUP--BACKUP
WIZARD. I have about 7 GB of information that I wanted to
back up to a second hard drive (60 GB) and after the
backup ran for several minutes and at a little over 4 GB,
it advised that it could not backup further and the
program stopped.

Question: Is there a limit to how much can be backed up ??
If so what good is the program if it can only back up
aroung 4 GB.

You must convert to NTFS..
