If there is a question about what backup software is being used:

Please consult you system vendor or administrator for the type of tape and software  used.  Here are a few tips:

  1. If Windows®95/98/NT/2000/XP backups are used, from the backup icon, right click and check Properties. 
  2. If Windows®95/98/NT/2000/XP backups are used, use Start->Programs, and check the program name used for backup.
  3. If using Microsoft Backup for Windows®95/98/NT/2000/XP is used, the specified tapes above can be used.
  4. If using our Grid Menu in DOS, highlight the backup option, press <F3> and read the DOS commands.
