banterer Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Hello, When running my easy script, more often than not, Retrsopect backs up 13.8 G of a W98 machine and usually has about 300-340MB to finish either comparing or copying and hardly ever does. I keep on restarting it but gets stuck at approximately the same point but NOT ALWAYS the same file. It only gets stuck on this machine. There are some execution errors [whatever those are] on some machines but since this is the first one, it is hardly ever getting to the other machines [Mac and Windoze]. This morning it was stuck copying a temporary internet file that was 0 bytes. WHAT TO DO???? Jorge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Hi Is the windows 98 machine going into low power mode or sleep mode? Will your other backups complete if you move this problem machine to the bottom of your backup sources? Thanks Nate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banterer Posted January 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Nope, Windoze not dozing off. I renamed the machine with a T at the beginning and then ran it and on the 18 of 20 when it had copied 2.5G with only 318.3M left it got stuck in the endless comparing loop! When it is at the beginning, it never gets past this machine. When at the end, it finishes all the others [Windoze 2k, OS9, OS 10.37] but stops at W98 2E.
