Jonathan, There is one problem with that concept. If you do a backup that way from a machine were you use a different hardware setup (think Hard drives) to an other machine, you will ave to change these things manually afterwards. When you change from one machine to an other you do not want a identical copy. The script is better for a pure backup of one machine because it includes the registry and the registration keys, but I never had a problem with that because I still have the original email with the key. Did you know that if you bring that email in focus you just have to click registration and your done? -- Best regards, Gerard -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= There is no surer or more painful way to learn a rule than to be penalized once for breaking it.
