Please log in for more thread options I did have a pocketpc backup software but uninstalled as Vista and the
software provider didn't or couldn't have/find a solution.
I can't think of anything else or where to start looking.
Ok I was being a bit generous when I said this was spoiling my use of Vista,
the more I get into it in particular the security lock down the more I am
having second thoughts about it. But that said I had the same thoughts about
XP, & 98 etc!
