I have a windows problem and I have to reload, I am trying to backup c:\mydocu~1\*.* to a:\ but when it gets the disk full it won't ask for anotther one it just quits. I know I am entering the path right. Any suggestions?

Are you the backup utility in Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools?

Sorry I didn't explain well. I am in dos, which I have now remembered it depends on the version, any way I am just, copy a*.* a:, copy b*.* a: and so forth and I have all the files now. Its just a matter of reloading windows now with no driver files, so this will be a drawn out process.
