Guest dorling@gmail.com Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Hi everyone, I am using Powerquest 5.51 to back-up(image) my hard disks I have 2 hard disks with 4 partitions (2 on each). Powerquest is on partition 4 of 4 but it got 35hour left at 110mb/min. I want to cancel it but I don't want to have to re back-up the first 3 partition. So will I have to re-back-up the frist 3 partition or not If i press cancel? Many Thanks for any help that you can give. Donald

This is one of the reasons why you should keep things modular: Back up your partitions one at a time instead of doing the whole disk in one huge lump.

Powerquest at that time had imaging software called DriveImage. Version 7.0 was last one. 6.0/2002 was before that. That version, and prior used dos or some form of dos to reside in. Did not work in XP. Have never heard of an application for imaging called Powerquest. 110 mb/sec (millibit per second) is terribly slow. 110 MB/sec is on par with a 8 year old PC. Dave
