I just purchased a terabyte HDD and i needed to backup about 100 gb of very important info i have on my computer. i am going to use the windows backup software, but i was wondering if i should run a full backup tonight then tomorrow start a scheduled incremental backup or if i should just let i do an incremental backup since it has not backed up before. it should back the whole thing up right??
Do a full backup first, then just setup an automatic append backup job at what ever time interval you need.

A friend told me that her brother upgrades to a new computer every 18 months. The process is made easy because he can copy an "image" from the original computer and transfer it to the new one. The transition is thus completely painless the new computer acts just like the first one (but faster & better).
How does one do this, exactly (backup software, external HD, what settings)? How do you transfer anything to a new computer if it starts off blank (i.e., no software to run the external HD) – is there some sort of transitional step that must be taken first? Can this "image" transfer all of the registry information properly, so that no software needs to be reinstalled? Are there problems with copying the operating system, especially given that two machines might have to share a single operating system at once?
Most importantly: aren’t most computer problems caused by a build-up of spyware + viruses + worms + too many programs in the registry – so this just copies the problems?
I use Norton Ghost (10) a lot. After you make a Ghost image of a working PC, you could, in principle, install a brand-new hard drive and restore the ghost image from the old PC. The Ghost image is best stored on an external USB drive.
Norton Save and Restore does similar things and is supposedly a bit easier to use.
The problem is that there will always be updates to Windows and installed programs. You want to define a "standard setup" with your favorite programs, create a ghost image and use that to restore. Keep moving forward and create a new "standard" image every 6 months or so.
When you install new things after the ghost image, make notes of what you do and what you download, so you can reproduce it (I use notepad to quickly paste notes in a text file on the desktop).
There are journaling file systems that allow you to restore to a point back in time.
The fancier versions of Vista have a "backup and restore center" that allow you to do just that. See link below.
hey guys can an image backup restore your software, drivers , games etc.. or can it restore the serial key for the software and all those stuff and can you guys explain what is a image backup
An image is basically a copy of everything on your hard drive. Like a snapshot of your whole drive. Restoring the image will return *everything* to exactly the way it was when the image was created. I use them exclusively since it would take me at least 18 hours to reinstall Windows and then all my games and software, never mind, as you mention, finding and installing all the keys and going through registrations… gah!

I need to choose a backup program to perform daily backups onto an external hard drive. I don’t want to use the program that came with the external drive (Memeo AutoBackup). Any suggestions?
Simplest and best I have found is WinRescue.
http://www.superwin.com/index.htm
It contains recommended files to save to recover from a crash and allows you pick what personal data you want to save and puts in a zip file.
It saved me from two Windows 2000 crashes, and a hard drive failure in WinXP Pro. I still have personal files that I first downloaded or produced in 1998. Wish I had bought it earlier.
The best thing is that you pay for it once and all subsequent upgrades are free, no yearly fee for use of the program.
There are free programs out there, but the ones I have tried are difficult to configure and use.
I been having so many problems with my computer and I am tired of having to reload and reinstall everything from all my backup disc. Is there a free or full working trial version of a cloning software that i can create a exact copy or image of my harddrive and copy it to a bootable cd or dvd disc to reinstall windows just before my computer crashed or files went corrupt any help would be greatly appreciated.
here are a few

Help! My hard drive on my laptop is about to take a crap. I would like to get an external hard drive that will come with software to completely transfer/backup my entire computer’s contents.
Once I do this, and once my old hard drive takes a crap (hopefully after transfer) will I loose my operating system and programs or is there one that will back that up too? Will I then need to replace my broken hard drive on my laptop with a new one and reinstall or can I pull everything off the external?
Thanks for helping a not so genius computer user!
The least expensive model that will accomplish this is what I’m looking for. FYI I use a Toshiba laptop with windows xp.
I plan on getting a new internal after backing up on an external. Otherwise how would I transfer the data? It’s a laptop. Not being rude, I seriously don’t know what to do lol
Feel free to IM me with suggestions also. I’m online and confused about this.
I would recommend the Western Digital Premium Edition I hard drive. It comes in various sizes and it also includes that software that you wanted. With the software you can schedule your backups or just select to backup only certain files each time.

I will show you how to burn a CD or DVD to backup your files in ImgBurn free burning software for Windows.
ImgBurn is a Free CD DVD burning software which allows you to burn Data files to optical media. It is easy to use, and fast. All you have to do is select the files or folders you want to burn to cd and click burn.
You can pick the speed you want to burn it at and verify it when ImgBurn is
done burning. You can even instruct ImgBirm to shutdown your PC after disk burning.
The user interface is clean, but also very boring looking.
Talk about it on my blog: http://johnsonyip.com/wordpress/2010/05/14/burn-file-storage-cd-r-dvd-r-with-imgburn-video/
