Heya
I've just clean installed Win2K pro on a previously 98SE machine. I stored all my files in a *.qic file using win98's backup util and am holding it on a FAT32 drive still installed on the new Win2K machine. All other drives are NTFS.
When I try to import the file using Win2K's backup util I get a failure message stating "the backup file is unusable..." There seems to be a lack of backward compatability, as the Win2K util is looking for *.bkf files, not *.qic. Short of installing Win98 on another machine, restoring the files, and copying directly, does anyone know of a workaround?
Thanks!
