Install the backup utility

I have a question that has been published by someone else several months back and only received no response.  I am trying to install my Windows XP cd Windows backup utility.  After inserting the cd, the instructions say click on leave and navigate to the "CDDrive:\ValueAdd\Mfst\Ntbackup" folder on the cd.  Where can I find this file so I can complete the installation of the backup utility?

The backup program is automatically installed on XP Professional, but not on XP Home.

For reasons unknown, MS Answer does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything about your system.

If you have the genuine bootable XP Home installation CD, insert it into your system and navigate to this folder:

\ValueAdd\MSFT\NTBACKUP

Double-click the Ntbackup.msi file to start the installation.

Here is a nice article from Microsoft which tell you all this:

Here is another article that explains how to:

If you don't have an installation CD or you are not sure what you have and you need to download the Ntbackup.msi file, here is the link so you can download:

  • HP Deskjet 3520 all-in-one: I installed the HP utility to scan, but the 'Edit analysis jobs' button is grayed

    I installed the HP utility to scan from my HP Deskjet 3520 to my Mac Book pro, but the "edit scan tasks" button is grayed out. I can only scan one page at a time, but one I want to scan multiple pages

    Thanks for the reply back @cjbd,

    You are able to open the HP scanning software when you perform a search from the Mac?

    You try to scan several pages from the printer to the Mac or from the HP scanning software?

    You should be able to open the HP scanning software and edit everything from there.

    Normally, you can select PDF to scan in a single file multiple documents if that's what you try to do.

    Because this model only has a dish, you must be notified to scan another page.

    Here is a document for digitization of the control panel of the printer: HP Deskjet 3520 e - all - in - one and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3520 e-all-in-One Printer Series - how to perform a scan: from the control panel.

    If the HP scanning software does not work, you will need to uninstall and reinstall the software again.

    I handed the document to uninstall: Printers HP - uninstalling the software of the printer (Mac).

    Here is the link to the drivers: HP-inkjet ink-SW-OSX - Mavericks_v12.34.40.dmg

    Please get back to me. Thank you!

  • I want to install the backup feature in Windows XP. The instructions say to put the Windows XP CD in the computer. I can only find the reinstallation CD "for XP Home Edition, including Service Pack 1" which is the correct CD or is there another?

    This CD is the 'Windows XP' CD?  What he should say about it?  How CD supplied with Windows XP (my computer is probably 4 years old).  I need to install the backup feature in Windows XP.  I cannot find a single CD only and not know if it is right - it's the reinstallation CD.  I don't want to reinstall windows XP. I want to just install the backup feature.

    Hi AlexandraCALIF,

    Thanks for posting. The XP CD that the system is referring to is your XP (maybe not the reinstallation CD) installation CD.  I would test of the first reinstallation CD to see if it has components which seeks the system. If it isn't you need to contact your manufacturer and get a CD of the OS on their part.

    I hope this helps! Let us know if you have any questions.

  • In Windows XP, the BACKUP utility in system tools requires a floppy disk should be created when you back up an entire volume. Why should a disk be used?

    As floppy drive are no longer included in laptops, the use of a USB storage device would make more sense now? Is this possible?

    Richard1952,

    Yes, you should be able to select an area on which you want to record on.

    Start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > backup: make sure to follow the installation instructions USB is plugged on when you start the backup utility.

    Good luck! Please rate me upward if you find my post helpful. Thank you!

    Computer MT continues to try to run a backup. He asked me to find a path to a folder containing the installation package 'SpareBackup.msi' I can't find it anywhere on my computer. I keep getting is not available.

    Hello

    1. when exactly you get invites him to install SpareBackup.msi?

    Method 1:

    I recommend you perform the clean boot that this issue could be caused by some third party software.

    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

    See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note:

    After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Method 2:

    You can also download and run a full scan of the system using the Microsoft Safety Scanner and check if the problem is caused by a Virus/Malware.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note:

    The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • W530 UltraNav Driver installed - where is the UltraNav utility?

    I am at a loss as to where the options are to tweak the UltraNav pointer and the touchpad on my Win7 64 bit W530. I did a fresh install of Win7 on it and downloaded all the drivers (more to run the system update utility) and while the UltraNav Driver is correctly installed and working, I do not see any place to download the UltraNav UTILITY.

    It's my ThinkPad fifth or sixth, and one of my favorite things is the UltraNav pointing combined with the touchpad. I would like to change the effort required on the pointing device, and then use the touchpad for idling and forced to control knobs. These settings have always been accessible on a tab on the control panel of the mouse after installing the UltraNav utility.

    I thought that maybe the UltraNav Driver included the utility, but I can't find any way to access the old controls that I'm so used to having on pointing devices.

    Any ideas what I may be missing? My Lenovo service ticket has been opened for two weeks now with no response, so I thought I would try my luck here.

    Thank you!!

    Well, it seems that a launch utility that I used to open quickly the mouse control panel, it opens in a way that does not include the installed extensions!

    If I just open the control panel of the mouse on the screen control panels, it is suddenly here!

    Thanks for your quick response, ColonelONeill! I think that your answer made me look just a little more close, that was all that I need. :-)
