Do you know the best way or program for Windows 98 SE to use for Complete System Backup and Restore.
I just spent hours searching the internet trying to find a reasonably cost effective (100.00 or under) program to Completely Backup and Restore my sytem. I do have a recovery CD from HP that restores my orig operating system. But I must still redownload all the upgdates to windows, explorer etc. then install my windows 2nd ed. along with all the other software that I use. Is there not away to back up and restore the entire system. Registry, partition info, etc and all programs, etc.
It seems when everything goes haywire I end up repartitioning and reformating and restoring my hardware and software. I would like to be able to just restore everything in one click so to speek without having to reinstall every program I own that I use.
I have HP Pavilion 8380 PII 400 mhz, 384 meg ram, using windows 98 SE, 30gig hard drive partitioned into 4 drives. One External USB HD approx 20 gigs for extra storage.. I would like to backup to this drive and be able to restore from this drive. If I cant then I can use my drive G: which is on the orig internal drive.
I have a fairly good understanding of computers but am new tothis situation. I have always just dumped everything and started over. There must be an easier way. Please help if you can.
thanks
