1. Use a backup system that handles NT registries. I use Vertias BackupExec.
2. RDisk.exe. can copy to a floppy if the registry is small enough. There's a KB article on how to restore if it doesn't fit on a floppy. 3. Using RegEdit.exe you can Export the hives to be changed to a text .reg file. If something gets hinky you can import the .reg file to overwrite the changes. 4. Using RegEdt32.exe you can use SaveKey to export the hive to a non-text file which can later be Restored. 5. You could try coping the .dat files to another location. In order to restore them you will need to access the folders using another operating system. 6. Upgrade to Win2K and use NTBackup.exe to backup the system state which will include the registry. _VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_ Todd Pukanecz, MCSE, GCWN Virginia Tech, Ag Human and Natural Resources IT Blacksburg, Virginia "In a country well governed, poverty is something to be ashamed of.
