When you're ready this is how you can point Windows Backup at the E drive.
Click Start -> Control Panel, change the view to large icons
Open Backup and Restore, click "set up backup". When you're prompted for a destination choose the E drive.
When asked what to backup I choose "Let me choose" as then you know what's beening backed up.
Continue through the wizard choosing what to backup and set a schedule.

You don't have to change the icons, but it makes it easier for me to give instructions as otherwise I have to work out which category Backup and Restore is under! It's under System and Security if you want to leave it as is.

Done a backup to drive E and set it every Sunday at 19:00 or was it 07:00
Made a start up disk while I was in the same box.
Next.

OK. I think that's everything done. Anything else to add to the 155 posts?

How do you think I got 34486 posts.
Been fun playing though, and I Thank You guys again for the knowledge.
Not sure whether I told Billy I set up the two monitors.
Should I phone the £60 an hour man and tell him how difficult it was.

Actually.
Why is the "w" got a faded line down the middle of it, haven't noticed it on any of the others.

Sorry, been trying to keep up but had quite a bit going off recently - you were clearly in capable hands!
What do you think to multiple screens? I can't live without now....
