Best Backup Utility Please ?
About a year ago, I spent a great deal of time researching the internet and
reading many reviews, to select a good, reliable , backup utility. After
much effort and reading, I selected Genie Backup Program. Although it has
the features that I love and has a pretty intuitive interface, I find it to
be unreliable and flakey.
My OS is Windows ME.
The main features that I want are :
1. Can write to CD.
2. Can automate on a pre-set schedule.
3. Stable, and reliable.
4. Practical and intuitive interface.
5. Easy backup restore process and interface.
6. Easy selection of folders and items for backup.
-------------------------------------------------
Compression or encryption are not needed. Also, I never need more backups
that what will fit on one CD. I guess my needs boil down to reliability
and intuitive interface, as well as automation if possible in the same
package.
When I started out looking for an acceptable product a year ago, I thought
that it would be simple to find a very good product for my limited backup
needs. I don't feel the same way now, after reading glowing reviews about
Genie Backup Program and then using it for a year.
I hope this is posted in the right groups. If better or more proper groups
exist, I would appreciate direction to them.
Thank you very much for any helpful input on this !!!

Windows Media player
My WMP (the one that came with WINME) got corrupted and stopped functioning.
I removed the folder WMP, downloaded WMP 9 and installed the program.
However, it is not functioning either (the program opens and then freezes
the computer to the point that I have to CTRL+ALT+DEL twice and restart).
Is it possible to reinstall the WMP that came with WINME (I still have the
CD)?
If so, how?
How do I uninstall WMP 9. It is not listed on the Add/remove window.

C:\OLDREST\TEMP
When I run mcafee it hits a hidden system file called
c:\oldrest\temp. This file is almost 4 gigs and contains
over 65,000 files with the file extension of .cpy, the
earliest file creation date is 1997,which is older than my
PC bought new in 2000 and the last entry is 2003. Mcafee
spends the better part of an hour checking this file.
My question is does anyone know what this is and what its
for, can I delete it or shoould I just have mcafee exclude
it?

Hello, I dont really know how much these questions are

2.What is an EEPROM burner, what does it do??
3.I'm having a 3yrs old PC with 64mb of system RAM(SD).Now
I want to increase the RAM,so I bought another 128mb of RAM
(SD) which I want to add to the previous one so that my
total system memory becomes 64+128=192mb. But I'm afraid
if the frequencies(66MHz or 100MHz) of both the RAMs dont
match, what will be the result??? In such a case, how does
one understand that the RAMs frequencies are not
mathcing??? How to detect the frequencies of the
individual RAMs??? Please suggest..

dat file icon changed - how to change back
All the DAT files have a Nero Multimedia icon against them.
How do I change the icon back?
Listing all the options under 'open with' does not give me the original DAT
icon.
In fact it warns me not to change it!
Using Tweak UI, icons restore, does not cure the problem.
It seems to have happened after I installed Nero 6 and did some critical
updates from MS.
AVG, XoftSpy, NoAdware, Spybot and CWShredder do not find anything.
Any help would be appreciated.

RUNDLL Error
Recently, I deleted some keys in the Windows Registry to
remove all obnoxious Adware files on my Windows ME
operating system. Shortly after, I started constantly
receiving a RUNDLL window popping up with the
message "Error loading winup.dll The system cannot find
the file specified. I had made a back up copy of the
Windows Registry before deleting the Adware keys. I tried
reverting back to that back-up to solve the RUNDLL error
messages, but to no avail.
Can anyone help me before I cave in and have to pay
Microsoft their $35 for help on this?

For those of you with update/upgrade issues, use the "unwise.exe" file
in the Programs File Folder for Ad-aware, click on the file, select "custom",
select all > next > select all, etc, reboot, manually empty the Programs File
Folder for Ad-aware in-case there are remnant files (there occasionally are).

Internet connection problems
Hi,
I can connect to my ISP and update my virus guard files from the Mcafee tray
icon, but when I try to check my e mail I get a message saying unknown host.
When I try to surf the web I get "Page cannot be displayed." If I ping
www.google.com, from a dos prompt, I just get timed out but if I ping
myself 127.0.0.1 it gives four responses as you would expect. I have
uninstalled internet explorer and then reinstalled it and upgraded it to ver
6.0 but still exactly the same. I did a Windows ME reinstall over my
existing setup but no difference. It all started after someone inserted a
disc to setup BT Connect as the ISP, unfortunately it was a very old disc
and didn't work, just locked up the system.
Has any one any ideas what I can do to remedy my problem.
TIA

Boot Problem
Hi;
Thanks in advane for listening. I am having problems booting from my
hard disk. I can boot from an old version (win98) startup disk, but never
made a WinME startup disk. can the system files be downloaded from the
internet or can they be extracted from my winME CD? How do I go about this.
I can't get the setup to complete because of a long filename conflict. When
scandisk ends it says to run the windows version, which of course I can't
do. I would prefer not to reformat my c drive if possible. At the moment I'm
working on a separate laptop with Win98 installed.
Hope someone has a solution
