Greetings!
After several challenges with the new hard drive, I have completely
re-imaged the drive with the OEM version of WIN XP Home from Compaq.
Before I reload the applications and customize the drive, I want to backup
the image.
I am looking for suggestions on the most efficient and effective methods
that allow simple, (daily, if necessary), incremental additions, and also
allow for the best, (easiest and most time-efficient), restores when they
are needed.
Any and all suggestions appreciated!
TIA!

Dave, I use Drive Image 2002. I have a 2nd disk that I image to
occasionally and use it to backup my data which also include my email,
address book and favorites. I usually create a new image after successful
program installs and windows updates. That way I feel I can get back to
where I was in short order.

You need to check the powerquest site on DI2002 and XP if XP is using its
NTFS file system. It will backup, but the restore will be incorrect. You
need DI 7.0 for that.
