     Help ALL!!:

I just backed up my hard drive the other day (01.07), and have a 11meg
file on my second partition.  I backed it up using Matt Dillons Backup
/restore program with this:
    Backup -c FF1: -oFF2:ff1/Backup01.07
and it backed it up no problems.

Now, I try and restore it with : Restore Backup01.07 (it's CD'd to
FF2:ff1), and it goes to it.  It then gets to  file VIDPLAY (vidEfx3d),
and it spews out "unknown file type" or something like that.

Right now, I'm trying again with restore -c Backup01.07.  Is this the
right way to do it?  I sure hope so....
