HI,
For me, I would just copy your user Folder file directory as this will usully hold everything that you have saved to the disk, unless you have saved it anywhere else.. this is fairly easy to setup..
Replicator from KarenWare, whats more its FREE!
http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptreplicator.asp1. install it.
2. Run it.
3. Select "Edit Settings"
4. Select "New Job"
5. Enter "Job Name" < anything you want >
6. Enter <Source Folder>
I think Vista uses "C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\" format
7. Enter <Destination Folder>
Your USB Stick maybe "E:\" or "E:\Backup" - what ever you want.. if not sure use Browse.
8. Click "Save Job"
9. Click "Close"
10. Click "<job name>"
11. Click Run Now
This may take some time to complete 1st time, after that it will only copy the newer files that are not already backed up..
