More tech stuff
I bought Acronis True Image and tried to start the backup of my HD. I keep getting stuck at the full backup because True Image keeps telling me I’m trying to save the backup to the same place as the HD. It is also not letting me create a file name.
If anyone knows where there are simple, clear instructions for True Image backups, I’d love to know.
Of course, I may just be exhausted, what with going to bed late last night and Tig waking me up early this morning.
I am going to bed. The backup can wait until tomorrow.

I am not familiar with Acronis True Image but are you telling it to put the backup on a different physical HD? Is that HD the same size or bigger than the one being backed up?

Well, I thought I was telling it to put the backup on my brand-new external HD, but True Image says I wasn’t.
I haven’t yet tackled it today.

I dumped Acronis for Norton Ghost.

I was right. I was tired, and clicked on the wrong box, or tried to name a file that didn’t need to be named.
Just finished backing up (and verifying) my entire HD, so tomorrow, this computer goes off to HP.
