Backing up the hard drive on a laptop over a network
results in an error, "The device reported an error on a
request to write data to media." The volume being backed
up is about 9GB and the back-up always seems to quit at at
4.2 GB. Backing up to a Win 98SE machine. Any ideas?
 
98SE has a file backup limitation of 4gig because of FAT32. You'll have to
split up your 9gig backup into 3 backup files.

If you are using third-party backup software, you should contact the
manufacturer's technical support.
