wright3578 Posted August 30, 2002 Report Share Posted August 30, 2002 I have retrospect 6. I have scripts that are scheduled to run in the evening. When these scripts start, it often takes a VERY long time (hour or two) before the software actually starts doing the backup. It just seems to sit there with no real activity to the hard drive. I'm backing up from c: drive to external hard drive. Is there a problem w/ my machine, or is this a common occurance? Also, when Retrospect shuts itself down after quitting, it hangs and says "Quitting", but doesn't seem to want to shut down. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks...
