Backup does not show external drive on restore by andrew not bery bright
I back up files using windows backup to a USB external Maxtor drive. All works well. Windows explorer can see the files etc.... However if i run backup and choose restore, it only shows the hdd of the pc, not the usb drive? All other vista applications see the drive and can read and write to it. Vista business premium, logged on as administrator

Backup system crashes and hard drive timeout by John[_22_]
I had been having strange error messages, followed by a crash dump, while doing a complete backup. Checking over my power settings, I noticed I had set an early timeout for hard drive. I normally don't run in the Performance setting, so I configured it for backup, setting the hard drive to always be on. Since I did this, I haven't had any more system crashes. The strange error messages...

If I run the memory diagnostic it says there is an error, and then the subsequent reboot will let Vista boot up. And this is now the only procedure that lets Vista boot up. It blue screens on boot up even in Safe Mode. Well, anyway, once I have run the memory...

BAD_POOL_CALLER? by Clark
Anyone know what this means when associated with a Blue Screen on Boot? This is still related to my modem causing a BSOD if I boot with it enabled. Works fine if I enable after boot. It gave a bunch of numbers also, so if they would help I have them. Thanks, Clark 5744

Balanced or to High Performance - reduce the battery life by Lovingly
If you change the power plan to Balanced or to High Performance, you may reduce the battery life of the computer. I am using High Performance settings for my battery but this appears. Why? And is there any way to keep the battery at a low charge with the battery and AC plugged in?
