Can't Perform A Complete Sytem Back up in Windows Vista Ultimate.
I have a Dimension E521 With A Clean Install of Windows Vista Ultimate. I can burn cd's and dvd's. But when i try to do a complete system back up using the back up and restore center. I get the error message the media is not UDF. Does anyone know how to go about fixing this??? Thanks i appreciate it very much.
Maybe if you play with the UDF formats on your DVD burner, it can help you to perform that task. But I'm not sure if that system backup can change the UDF format.
Maybe if you format the CD/DVD before using it it can help
Put a blank DVD, go to Start, Computer, right click on the DVDRW drive, click on format, you'll get the UDF formats.
1.02 This format can be read on Windows 98 as well as many Apple computers. You should use this version if you need to format DVD-RAM or MO (Magneto-optical) discs.
1.5 This format is compatible with Windows 2000 and later Windows operating systems. This format and later versions might not be compatible with Windows 98 or Apple computers.
2.01 This format is compatible with Windows XP and later Windows operating systems. This is the default UDF version for Windows Vista.
2.5 This format is supported by Windows Vista, and might not be compatible with earlier versions of Windows.
GioAguilar I got the error code at the end of the back up. It did not ask but for 1 dvd not 7 like it should have. It did not give me any particular speeds to burn at. So i have no idea what speed i burned at and have no idea how to change this.
