Like many online software sources these days, Gamehouse games don't really need to be backed up. You can always just re-download them. On Fri, Aug 14, 2009 at 9:47 PM, Bill Wajert wrote: > Can someone suggest a good backup software, or hardware solution for my > wife's labtop. It runs XP Pro, is

Can someone suggest a good backup software, or hardware solution for my wife's labtop. It runs XP Pro, is her school supplied computer, but she really wants to preserve all her "games" that she has downloaded and installed from GameHouse. Thanks for your time Bill ***

I too have been drive imaging for years. I partitioned my C drive small enough to fit on a (couple) DVD(s) and keep all my really important stuff there. Daily incremental images and monthly images to DVD(s). Last I tried Acronis it wouldn't recognize my SATA drives at all. These days I'm using

Don't know what the Mac programs really are, but for backing up data files (not for cloning / imaging a hard drive) Karen's "Replicator" (http://www.karenware.com/) is good for small and medium jobs and is free. For large jobs, SyncBackSE (http://www.2brightsparks.com/) is more efficient and w
