Solve : Any XXCopy Users??

Answer»

Win98se. General query - no problems.

Has anyone using XXCopy /Clone managed to clone their system disk and make it bootable with Fdisk :-? If so have any major problems been experienced :-?

Thanks..Can I ask why you want to use this software?There are other, more reliable solutions for backup.Backdated - Because it's there and I want to find out its capabilities.

GX1_Man - Sounds like you have used XXCopy and other backup systems, how else would you KNOW that others are more reliable than XXCopy. Would you care to comment on the less reliable facets of XXCopy please :-?

I will probably never use XXCopy for backup but I sure do want to know what the prog is capable of just for the fun of finding out.

For the "fun of finding out" use google.

I use Acronis True Image for backups and imaging. I am assuming this is what you are referring to rather than the file management utility called xxcopy.Thanks for that GX1. I had already downloaded XXCopy & printed the 30-odd sets of information one of which appears to show that a system disk can be cloned using XXCopy then ACTIVATED using Fdisk to write the MBR.

I am only INVOLVED with this for my "hedification" and will be looking at Acronis as well. If I LOST absolutely everything on my hdd it would be fun re-building using my current backup which is all on cd. However I will be using XXCopy to clone my current hdd to a slave hdd then trying to activate it. As I said "Just for the fun of it".

Thanks again.

I will appreciate COMMENTS by anyone else with experience of XXCopy.
