that is why i always use a backup program that stores the backup in a zip format, or other format, readable by different programs
I started with Experts Exchange in 2004 and it's been a mainstay of my professional computing life since. It helped me launch a career as a programmer / Oracle data analyst

I carried out a W7 backup on another drive, this I normally use on another machine with XP and a LaCierHD.
Windows Image Backup is there but properties show a )zero size.
Most peculiar as it seems to backup and takes about 30 mins.

Thanks very much for all the help.
I should be able to get a result from all the information I have now. At the moment the only backups I can get are copy and paste the files. Not sure of the effect in a problem.
Anyways thanks again.
