Unless your new pc is named EXACTLY the same as the old one, then Dsbackup is your best bet. Not sure of the current link, but if you need it, I will try and dig it out.
BTW by computer name I mean the one to be found under Network Neighbourhood ->Properties->Identification. Hope this helps ------------------ Regards Mouse [This message has been edited by Mouse (edited 08-14-2001).] |

I appreciate your help. My new comp is not the same as the old. If you could find that link that would be great!
Thanks again |

Try doing a search for DSBackup on this forum or on this alternate board. I have never had to use it myself, but a bit of ferreting around should get you all the info you need.
Best of luck ------------------ Regards Mouse [This message has been edited by Mouse (edited 08-14-2001).] |

Why search? Try this:

I might have a copy of it. If I can find it with the instructions and it isn't too big I'll email you a copy but I can't remember how to work it. It's not easy sharing a house with five computers and four relatives (only two of the computers are online, and have CD writers, DS is on an offline one so I can only transport floppy sized zips to the online ones, unlimited the other way).
