Im backing up my whole hard drive to dvds before i upgrade to windows 7. (yes this is necessary and cds are my only option) im using the windows backup and restore center, and the first dvd which is only 4.7gb has taken 3 hours so far. This makes no sense to me because 4.7gb is about 40 minutes of waiting for me, and this seems like it should go faster being completely local.
I managed to cut it down to only 80gb, removing all my games and such, leaving only system files and a few extra things,(adobe, java, ect) so Without the option to really remove anymore, i cant wait this long for such small fragments of downloading.
Can someone explain why this is taking so long, and how i could fix it?
Thanks in advance
Oh and by 3 hours i mean it finished the first disc in that time so its not stuck or anything
