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!

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. >From: "Nicholas D" >Reply-To: opendos AT delorie DOT com >To: opendos AT delorie DOT com >Subject: restore.exe >Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 06:03:07 +0000 > >Hi, > >Sorry if this is off topic. > >I need to restore a data backup from win3.1 that I made in 1994.
