I E-mailed HP about this, and I got a download link as well as steps to use the Windows Backup Utility. I figured that I would share this with the list just in case the list moderator may want to post the program to the website. The info is below. AC

Let me assist you in this regard. Alvin, this is due to non availability of the backup application software on your notebook operating system. To resolve the issue, I recommend you to perform the below steps: Step 1: Download ntbackup utility. >From the below FTP URL, please download and install the application on your notebook. http://www.winxptutor.com/ntbackup.msi NOTE: The URL(s) above will take you to a non HP Web site. HP does not control and is not responsible for information outside of the HP Web site. Step 2: Backing up your files using NTBackup Utility: 1. Press Start button, Run and type NTBACKUP 2. Select Backup tab at the top 3. In the left pane, scroll to the file/folder which you want to backup and put a checkmark on it. 4. At the bottom, mention the output filename (the backup output) 5. Once set, click Start Backup button in the right, and again click Start Backup in resulting dialog Note: NTBACKUP does not have the ability to write to CDs directly. You will need to save the backup to hard drive, then transfer or burn it to a CD-ROM. Also, while backing up several files, make sure you backup the files in separate sets of each max 650MB (so that it fits on a CD-ROM) I am sure the above information will surely resolve the issue with the notebook. If you need further assistance, please reply to this message and we will be happy to assist you further.
