Be careful: if you take your keyboard apart, it's really hard to get the
space bar or other spring-loaded keys back on so

That method has never worked. You must do this:

You might want to try download.com, which has a couple of utilities
which supposedly will analyze for missing drivers.

I back up my Dell (runnung Vista) to a WD My Book 500 Gb External hard
dive.
With the changeover to Standard time, all the files on the External
drive now show timestamps one hour later than all the files on my C
drive. The time stamps on another backup drive (Maxtor) and on DVD's
agree, so
Dunno either ...tape drive controller shows bang and cannot be disabled or
deleted and also shows no driver and cannot be rolled back or updated ...??

Your Vista machine is probably using NTFS for its file system. Your
external drive is probably using FAT32. NTFS handles DST correctly,
while FAT32 does not.
Solution is to upgrade the external drive to NTFS (or some other real
file system).

Why would this interfere with incremental backups? In an incremental, only
*changed* files are supposed to be included. Besides, even if it depended on
time instead of changes, just do one full backup.

It's how the files are organized on the disk. In the PC world there are two
primary file systems, FAT and NTFS. FAT is the older system; it uses
somewhat less space and is OK for smaller drives, but for larger drives the

The file system is what Windows Explorer explores. :)
(Well, sorta. It explores other stuff too, but mainly you're looking at
stuff that the file system has organized.)
Windows Explorer is pretty much a GUI Graphical User Interface,
enabling you to see things and access them.
The true GUI is Windows XP or Leopard, or Linux, but they all use a

You can determine the file system quickly by simply right clicking the
driveProperties.
But does anyone really ship these with FAT32? That would mean no files 2gb
or (4?).

You need to be very careful about static electricity discharge when

Leaving the CPU plugged in while turned off and grounding your hand to
