backups to dvd

[Guest]

Hi, Everyone,
I have installed ERUNT to back up my register onto my "C" drive but if there
is a total failure and I cannot access my "C" drive this will be of no use,
so I need to back up to a DVD to keep safe somewhere, so can anybody
recommend a program that will do this efficiently? I have been recommended
"GENIE BACKUP MANAGER" has anybody used this one? or any other?
"Better to be safe than sorry"

Backing up your registry, while helpful, is not sufficient to keep you
"safe than sorry". What happens if one or more Windows system files is
damaged?

You should go "all the way" and image your system partition. Not an easy
thing to master, but definitely worth it. Popular disk imaging programs
include (in alphabetical order): Acronis True Image, Symantec Norton
Ghost, and Terabyte Unlimited Image for Windows.

Glad to help. Once you learn disk imaging you'll wonder how you lived
without it.

I use Acronis True Image to image my entire C drive to an external USB
hard drive. I have used it to restore C: a few times. It works well.
