Have fun - but do check the resulting discs are readable on some other system it can be really annoying to have recovery discs you cannot read because the drive that created them has failed
Almost as annoying as MS changing the format of their backups with the new versions of their OS releases so you cannot read old backups without installing the old OS, and then you cannot read the new backups JimB ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc Sims" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, November 14, 2005 7:45 PM Subject: Re: Software: Backing full volumes with NG 10. Yes I do have the space volume E: has 63 GB free out of the 73 GB total I did a full backup of Volumes C: and D: so I place those images in a folder on Volume E: called E:\Norton Ghost Backup Images under the files it creates C_Drive 001.v2i and D_Drive 001.v2i using max compression they average 8 to 12 GB a piece. I just cop those over to a few DVD+R DL disk at 8.5 GB each wich will amount to 2 - 3 DVD+R DL disk.
