Back up disc

S

Scott

Hello,
I installed the Backup file from my XP disc, and the
program is there, but when I try to save it to my E:/ it
says :
The backup file name could not be used.

"E:\Backup.bkf"

Please ensure it is a valid path, and that you have
sufficient access.

Thanks,

Scott

Thanks for the help, but I don't understand why the
Microsoft pages told me to substitute E:/ for the A drive
when it can't be done. I'll follow your links and
hopefully get it dont.

Thanks again,

Scott
