A Cry for Vista Help
I’m officially sick. White-spots-on-my-throat sick. But, I’ve made a lot of progress with the new computer, except for one not so minor problem: I can’t get my files off my external hard drive. They come up as gobbly gook.
Here’s the scoop: I used StorageSync software to back up my entire hard drive to an external hard drive. So I apparently need to use the software’s restore function to get them back. All the files have a .bpa extension. I wrote the company and they rather curtly told me I can’t restore XP files to Vista. I refuse to accept this answer! There has simply got to be a way, other than my gradually restoring files to another PC (i.e. work), burning them to a gazillion CDs, and then getting them on the new computer.
Any ideas? Cuz I’m fresh out of them at this point.
