Try one of the DR-DOS restore.com/exe versions. DR doesn't check the
version of the OS that it's running on, offers a whole bunch more options
and is just a BETTER program. You can even restore to a different directory
than that from which you backed up. DR rules!

Hi,
You can try the SETVER program. Type:
SETVER restore.exe 3.30
To make DOS report version 3.3 to the executable restore.exe
I think Windows 98 loads the setver.exe device driver (regardless of whether
it is actually in config.sys or not)
I hope that helps
Regards,
Joydeep.
