I am thinking hard about which app to back and restore HDD on my laptop with no floppy drive. I am a backup mania.

Well, I guess I need to have app that creates bootable CD and bootable image CD(s). I am really not used to the scenario of this type, since I am too much used to use floppies to back up and restore HDD, such as Ghost.


Thanks for advising.

if you meant back and restore just a fresh install, that could be done by the Ghost easy, i do it all the time. use Nero to make a boot disk from 98 floppy, put Ghost on it as well, and since you now can boot from CD into dos, you can do anything after that, i assume you have two partitions on your laptop thou, caz it is kind of hard to do anything without it, i put restore file on my second partition before the restore, and good thing about it, you can have bigger file which can contain ALL your backup.

..this is very useful and helpful place for information...
