| | Vista full computer back up - not working I did a successful computer back up after getting a new Acer Laptop with Vista Ultimate. Using the Windows Back Up Full Computer. It bucked at first but then it worked. After installing the programs I wanted and setting things up the way I wanted, I decided to do another back up. Can not get the back up to work again. After it finishes writing the disk and it asks for a new DVD it will not spit out the old one. It spit out the disk on the successful back up. It keeps the drive tray locked. Right clicking on the DVD drive and it says drive in use. I Wait some more. Right clicking produces an option to close session, take that option produces a bank DVD. Any ideas. This Vista is awfully clunky for something that has been worked on for so long. |
