Hello,
I have this problem with my dito max/parellel port too.
It seems to back up just fine. But when doing a varify it
starts out fine, then gets slower and slower, then at about
45 min. into it, it gives me an error.
After trying every thing I could come up with, I just give
up on trying to get it to work.
Some one was telling me the problem was most likely
because the computer is only a pent. 75mhz (with 64mb).
What is your computer ?
P.S. I use Taper to backup, not in X.
