Title: Backup of W98SE. Post by bagb on Nov 24th, 2006 at 1:47pm
Hello,
My W98SE is close to fully updated with many downloaded Windows updates. That means I have my W98SE CD disk plus all the internet updates on the HD. How do I back up the internet updates so in case of a HD crash I do not have to do all the timeconsuming internet downloading again? >:( bagb |

buy an IDE HDD (hard disk) 3BG say bigger than your present one
disconnect the ribbon cable and power connection from the cd rom drive and (make sure the ither end is connected to the SECondary IDE channel on the mother board in so it does not matter if jumpers are set at Master or slave . with an old Pc like yours you need to go to the BIOS by pressing DEL key and AUTO DETECT IDE and (F10)save and exit. down load this software and make a bootable floppy first http://www.postbox.wanadoo.co.uk/mb2.exe boot straight into it and choose to prepair and copy one HDD to another. it is not like GHOST it is a byte copier not BIT copyer like ghost. it is free and it works . to test it disconnect original HDD and boot with the 3 BG one the new second hand one. the only thing is if you are an amature make sure you do not prepair the source HDD !!! (KNAKER IT) it is GUI but think before you click !!!! regards Ben :D or see what hard disk you got and go to your hard disk manufacturer and down load their software for prepairing and copying one hard disk to another the one I have posted is generic (works with all HDD ) the otherers are proprietory which means only works if you got one of ther Hard disk in your computer , as long as one of the drives is theirs it works. else get a ghost 2000 that should work with 98 (fat32) and iis only few pounds(dollars) second hand CD then you make a bootable floppy etc ;) |
