GREAT advice, thanks!

so you cant have 3 diffent backups, with a different copy of xp on each system? I own 3 copies now.

yes under warranty, and they have a clause to replace it, but they keep making excuses " Oh its a different problem this time" when actually its the same problem, they just never completely write down on the order exactly what I tell them

yeah basically identical. I dont need ALL the programs on each system, but might as well to make things easier. I figure up to 5 gigs of programs. and I guess xp is about 1.5 gig, right? so maybe about 10 gigs needed.

MULTIPLE restore installs? Hi all, I run high end programs on multiple systems. Over time, windows gets corrupted and needs clean installs. ( dont want to argue this point please) What program can I back up my entire operating system and all my normal installed programs. ( probably about 20...

Hey all! I have a new/recent Fujitsu laptop, 3.2 ht, P4, dvd, etc. It has a brand new mother board! ( just fixed for a NON related issue) Got back, and forgot about this problem - cause the others worse. BUT THIS IS SUPER ANNOYING. ( had this problem before too, before new board ) It...

hi; my 2 cents - 1. dunno, it's dicey at best ........thanks. I dont see why is shouldnt work. once windows is booted, the other drive array wouldnt effect it would it? 2. no ........i thought xp, could run as a software boot raid. that doesnt mean it would help here though. 3. no...

RAID on RAID - hardware or Software? Hey all, My problem is I've got to remove big video files off a pair of striped raid drives. The drives are currently OFF any system. They were originally run off a promise TX 100 controller. They are older, slow drives, and I want to replace them with...
