    Windows 7 Backup software question for Mike & Super Sarge

    Absolutely you can give me advice and instruction! I often missed having a second set of eyes/ears when I was an Aggressor Controller (we worked without techs), the two-man team is the way to go! I worked two-man teams in NORAD and at the 623 in Okinawa, of course. Your advice makes sense, if I...

    Windows 7 Backup software question for Mike & Super Sarge

    Thanks, guys! Well, I left Macromium running a backup with the whole drive selected, all three items. Sarge, if I understand you correctly, if I were to put a new drive in there, I would just restore the whole thing and it would write back the D: HP Recovery partition, my C: drive, everything...

    Windows 7 Question about Paragon backup & recovery 2011 Free edition ...

    Windows 7 Question about Paragon backup & recovery 2011 Free edition ...

    After seeing a YouTube video on bare metal backup with this program by a "Mike" from this forum, I downloaded it and created the recovery disk. But my screen when booting from the recovery disk does not look like that in the YouTube video. I cannot select my entire hard drive like Mike does, I...

    Windows 7 Which Anti-Virus do You Use?

    I'm using Kaspersky. The Geek Squad recommended it when I bought my new HP at Best Buy. I'm a non-techie, so I took their advice.
