I use the Windows 7 Backup and Restore. It works great, but I found it cannot delete individual files from the backup. I have to restore all files, delete and backup. This is a real pain. I have always used Ghost to clone drives, but no more.

Re: Ghost 15 cloning or copying Win 7 Ghost 15 does not work like previous versions. I tried cloning a WD 80 GB HDD to a WD 160 GB, and Ghost mucked up the drive. I could get the cloned drive to work by using Win 7 Pro Setup in repair mode. I ran Disk Manager on the clone, and I found only one...

Answered myself: I copied the Win 7 backup and Vista backup folders from HDD A, old backup HDD, to HDD B, new larger backup HDD. The two folders copied but the total used byte count on HDD B did not match that of HDD A. The folders show zero bytes which appears to be true for all Vista and Win...

I backed up Vista data and folders, not an image backup, on the original backup HDD before installing Win 7. When I run Win 7 Backup, it shows the Vista Backup and the latest Win 7 Backup. I have restored some pictures and videos from the Vista Backup, so I know it works. I would like to keep...

You are correct about the image backup. I do not have one. I want to save my Vista Backup. Is this possible?

The external drive contains my last Vista backup, as well as the last Win 7 backup. I wanted to keep the Vista backup. If I copy the Vista folder to the new larger HDD, what will be lost? I can run a new backup for Win 7, so no loss.

If you have a USB keyboard or mouse replace it with a PS2 keyboard or mouse. I have clients where USB devices are causing boot problems with Win 7 SP1.

I purchased a larger external hdd for my Win 7 Backup. I would like to move or copy the existing Win 7 Backup/Restore files to the new external hdd to freeup the old external drive for other data. Do you just copy the Backup folders on the old hdd to the new drive? Strangely, the Win 7 Backup...

HP 2000C Win 7 Driver Update Looks like my HP 2000C Win 7 Setup works with 32-Bit Home Premium Edition. This is great news, because I could only test the setup with 32-Bit Win 7 Pro. Please note: the list of programs to setup the HP 2000C which was shown in an earlier post is correct except...

HP 2000C Win 7 Driver Update Apparently, Print Management is unique to Win 7 Pro. I am glad that my HP 2000C Win 7 / Vista setup package provides a way to keep the HP 2000C running. It is too bad that HP and the other printer companies do not care about legacy printers. If I could put a...

HP 2000C Win 7 Driver Update Please post here if you successfully setup your HP 2000C in 32-bit Win 7 using my setup package. I am trying to monitor the number of forum users that have used my setup. Thanks!

HP 2000C Win 7 Driver Update The setup package I created will only work on 32 bit Win 7. The printer setup works for Win 7 Add Printer Wizard and HP Install Networks Setup Wizard v. 8.1. I do not know of any 64 bit drivers for the HP 2000C. If you find a source, please contact me. Thanks!

HP 2000C Win 7 Driver Update For anyone still using an HP 2000C, I have created and tested a driver package which will add an HP 2000C printer to Windows 7 Pro. I have developed one procedure for adding an HP 2000C as a Local printer on an LPT1 parallel port and another procedure for adding it...

Hp 2000 c Unfortunately, the HP 2000C setup procedure outlined in my previous post will only install an HP 2000C printer on Win 7 and Vista as long as it is networked via an HP JetDirect Print server. You must use the HP Network Setup Wizard v. 8.1 software, and it must be executed in XP SP3...

From XP Pro collect all of the following files and put them in the folder as shown. You will find all of these files on the XP Pro Setup disc or in the XP Pro Windows folder on your hard drive. Note that the files have a HPV prefix. Create a directory called C:\HP 2000C and put the following...
