I solved my problem by installing version 7.0 which I got for $10 after rebate from
Comp USA. What is nice about this version is that it never has to leave Windows
to back up the drive. I did also find a reference to the fact that previous versions
of Drive Image do not have support under DOS for USB devices (I have a wireless KB
and mouse that use the USB port). However, I put reg mouse and KB on and still could
not get version 5 or 6 to run. I am not sure when the Comp USA rebates expire -
but you can check on their web site. BTW version 7 also backs up to network drives.
