    Best software for system backup?

    Thanks for all of the input! It did not occur to me that Windows is capable of doing an image backup. I am now considering just purchasing one large external hard drive and using Windows Backup to create an image file from each PC on this hard drive. I am not concerned with data backups or...

    Best software for system backup?

    Thanks again for the reply. It's a big help. Regarding overwriting the previous image, the external hard drive only has space for one or two images before it is full. Since I want to run this frequently, is the software smart enough to replace the oldest image file on the external hard drive...

    Best software for system backup?

    Thank you for the quick reply. Is the recovery disk something I would create just once right after I install the software and then store in a safe place? If I have two computers that I wish to do this for, can I create just one recovery disk for the two of them or do they each need their own...

    Question about buying new Dell Precision

    The RAM from crucial runs at the same speed and again, it is guaranteed to work by crucial. I am pretty sure that opening the case and installing more RAM will not void the warranty. Can anyone else confirm this?

    Thanks for the help dclive. I was able to remove the registry keys. I learn something new everyday... Out of curiosity, do you know if you can share the system32/config file and load and edit the hive from a networked PC?

    Impossible to remove virus

    You are correct. Thanks Hennessy1 and dclive for that bit of advice. I removed the hard drive, connected it to another PC and was able to delete the file (adsmsex.dll). I have put the hard drive back into the original PC and booted it to Windows to see if the file is recreated - it is not...

    Impossible to remove virus

    Nope. Can't say that I have. But I think the permissions on the file will still block my removing it even if I move the HD to a new system.

    RAID 1 question

    I understand that. My question is, does it take longer to format BECAUSE it is an array as opposed to just one hard drive. By the way, I understand that it is best to use two identical hard drives when doing a RAID array, but is this a requirement? I have a WD 160GB and WD 250GB hard drive...
