Guest Posted January 12, 2002 Report Share Posted January 12, 2002 I just downloaded Express for Windows. Everything works fine and the backup begins but then freezes up. If I stop it and restart it will make it a little further and then freeze. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrenaS Posted January 14, 2002 Report Share Posted January 14, 2002 [Also posted under "XP and 5.6"] What kind of a hang was it? Were you able to stop the backup? Quit Retrospect normally? Did you have to force quit? Did you have to restart the whole system? Is the device that you are backing up to one that we have fully qualified? See the Device Compatibility guide to be sure that your device is supported: http://www.dantz.com/index.php3?SCREEN=compatibility_list What kind of device are you backing up to? Try a test backup to a file backup set stored on the local hard drive. If this completes without errors or hangs, it points to a problem with your backup media, device, or device communication. For detailed troubleshooting, see the correct device troubleshooting document in the Knowledgebase for your device and interface: http://dbs.dantz.com/faq/ If the hang persists even to a file backup set, this points to a problem with the data or source that you are backing up. Try running disk utilities on the drive. Try running a backup while no other processes are running on the computer to check for a conflict. Note that virus software and crash protection software can sometimes conflict with Retrospect, so try disabling these. If you are still having problems, gather as much information as you can and contact Tech Support for one-on-one assistance.
