like the title says:
everytime i use the backup tool, it freezes when i try to reboot.
it just says "preparing to reboot" and pops the cd out, but after that, usually it says "press enter to continue", but that never comes up and i have to do a hard shut down. now the next time i boot it up, after i try restoring by using "dsl restore=hda1" it doesn't restore anything. all my saved stuff is lost.
now some key notes which may help figure out why this is happening:
- i'm running an ntfs hdd (i think)

- happens on backup or restore
- when i did backup and restored after, it didn't remember anything (styles, files created, etc), but it did happen to remember when i went to backup/restore.exe that i typed "hda1" in the text field last time =\

- when i use the shutdown cmd it shows "press enter to continue", but remains frozen.
- i tried backing up to a floppy, but that didn't work either.
- when the backup app froze a couple of times, i gave up and went to shutdown and it said that floppy is not a valid medium/destination or w/e. but i'm not sure why - i had it mounted and thats how i normally use the floppy as well.
- (i'll get back to you on the rest when i think up of it)
