Hi - I've got a WXP system with a failed hard drive. I have some backed-up
files I need to restore to a W98 system. Backup was done with the WXP
backup utility. The W98 backup utility recognizes the file and seems to
work fine, but considers itself having creating a complete restore file
after only about 6meg out of a total of about 50meg. The remaining files do
not show up at all in the window to select files to restore.

I've tried copying the backup file to the hard drive before restoring, but
still get the same results. Any suggestions? I'm really in a ditch and seem
to be digging deeper. All help is sincerely appreciated. Thanks,
Whit
 
OK, thanks. Any suggestions how I can get this backed-up data out and into
a W98 system? Is the WXP backup utility available for download? Will it run
in W98?? HELP, I'm stuck and need the data badly.
Thanks,
Whit
