    :mad:All of a sudden, I cannot get past 20% when I try to do a backup. I have looked through their knowledge base and done some Googling (almost all the posts date back at least a year), tried what they said and no luck. Reinstalling did nothing. I would like to do a backup before doing the Windows 10 update. There had been no problems at all prior to this backup attempt. Admitted, the last successful backup was early this year so there have been many updates under the bridge.
    I will set up a checkdisk run when I sign off tonight and see what happens.

      Was the backup attempt via hard-drive MR or external boot MR?

      Anything in the Windows Logs around the time of the backup? (Start > Run > eventvwr)

      cheers, Paul

      I used the HD MR. I can’t find anything in Windows logs because I had set up a chkdsk run last night for this morning and when I booted up, I got the maker logo flash, then it went to a blank screen with the HDD activity light going crazy. This has been going on for 3 hours now. I am using a backup to write this as the ASUS is my work computer. Just what I needed.

      I should also state that I had successfully used the HD MR to do backups for a couple of years.

        Absolutely what I’ve been doing for some time now! And, HD-based MR works very well! 🙂

      Should have run chkdsk overnight.

      Problem sorted out. It seems that the chkdsk function works differently on my ASUS laptop in that where in times past on other units the function would pop up halfway through the bootup with a text interface showing what it was doing, on the ASUS I got the initial start showing the manufacturer’s logo then chkdsk dove right in full tilt with no descriptors showing. I just let it go and 3 hrs. later I got a bootup with MR alive; it’s alive! I now have a current backup and am getting ready to do the Windows 10. Thanks all.
