Hi Basil,
I looked but did not see it there. While I was there I also didn't see my Video card NVIDIA 7300 LE they did have the
7300GS.

Getting back to my problem:
I have two backups on my computer and they have problems
The MS Backup stored 17 GB but said there were files missing and didn't say what. I don't have a Floppy drive only and
External and don't know if that backup will work in NTFS Command Line.

My second backup is a Western Digital that came with my 500 GB external HD but that only copied 13. GB

I have a total of 24 GB on my C:\Windows XP drive. That's why I was asking about Norton Ghost to see if it would backup
everything.

Hmmmmm... So according to that list Drive Image 7 and Norton Ghost 9 work on
Beta 2 and later. I never bothered to try them out. Guess I better get busy.
 
I see that for Norton Ghost but if you go down the page it also says it has problems on 5472. If I am reading this
right. I didn't see anything yet on RC1.
I don't know if I should buy the NG v10 although I mainly want it to backup XP but don't know if it will do a complete
backup.

The problems with Ghost and 5472 are running the 32 bit software under the
64 bit OS.
 
Oh, OK I didn't know that. I really don't know how to read this site.
How long does it take until they start putting data for RC1?

Drive Image 7 won't even install. It doesn't surprise me that it doesn't
work, though. I wouldn't expect Ghost 10 to work either. Those types of
utility programs are so tied into the OS that with all the changes in Vista,
I wouldn't expect it to work.

I strongly doubt it. It probably won't even install. If you have it
installed on your XP installation then run the Vista Upgrade Advisor from
within that installation. It will probably tell you it's a problem. Low
level system utilities like usually need to be re-written.
 
Hi Rock,
What I am going to do is use Partition Magic to create a mirror of my Win XP. That way if I have a problem like the ones
I see here with the OS getting corrupt I can just replace it.
What do you think?

You can use Ghost from XP to image the drive, you just can't install / run
Ghost from inside Vista.
 
Hi Rock,
Since I don't have Ghost and do have NPM won't my way work by making a mirror of my C:\ drive?

Ok, I thought you had Ghost. Yes, though I haven't used it, I believe you
can use Partition Magic to copy a partition. Make sure you work with it
and know how it works, that it works on your system and you can restore a
partition using it.
 
Hi Rock,
I will check it out. I have had some problems, I been emailing PM support about that 1024 boundary which doesn't apply
to me and they asked me for some reason they won't tell me for:
Also I suggest that you uninstall Partition Magic completely, remove registry entries and run the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility and
delete Boot magic files and folders and then install Partition Magic.
remove registry entries and run the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility and delete Boot magic files and folders
and then install Partition Magic. In order to completely remove Partition Magic, please follow the steps provided below:

My reply. They didn't answer me again. Guess I just have to do as they say all though it is a hassle cause I have to:
What I needed to know is why you want me to completely uninstall NPM? You didn't give a reason and I want to know so if
whatever is wrong with the install so I won't use NPM that way.
What Boot Magic files? I can't use that with NTFS unless I make a new Primary partition which I can't do. I am using up
all four of my primaries.
I am waiting for this answer before I make any changes. Please get back to me ASAP.

Yep, you have run right into the quality Symantec support. Good luck.
 
You can say that again but I guess I'll have to deal with it.

The only thing I don't under stand is Why PM is recommending that I use Drive image to do the HD instead of there own
copy a partition?
