| | Windows Complete PC Backup drive selection!? Hi all, I used Windows Complete PC Backup in my Vista Ultimate to backyp my system drive. Now when I want to do a complete PC backup.... my hardware hasn't changed!...... Windows Complete PC Backup automatically pre-selects C and D. C is my system drive and D is not. D is a data drive on which there are no paths required by the system. Worse is that I can't deselect D and that C+D won't fit on my backup drive. How do I fix this without having to buy a new beackup device. Patrick |

| | RE: Windows Complete PC Backup drive selection!? I've just found out that this occured after installation of nero 8 ;maybe it has to do something with the nero backup progam ? I rolled back to nero 7 without nero backup and can choose drives to back up again. werner "werner" wrote: Quote: > Hi > I encountered the same problem; no selection possible anymore > I use this workaround ; backup from commandline ,see this article how to do it > http://www.microsoft.com/technet/tec...007/09/Backup/ > > succes > > "Patrick" wrote: > Quote: > > Hi all, > > > > I used Windows Complete PC Backup in my Vista Ultimate to backyp my system > > drive.
