Would LOVE to get some files off of a 2 dvd backup from 2004 - most likely from a dell pc with windows 98.
Even if I need to buy and old pc with Win98 on it
I have some newer pc's that I have tried to restore it to but no luck?
Would it help if I have the original disks? I can find on ebay if needed -- it cam on the puple disks in the attached pic
Any feedback/ideas would be greatly apreciated!!!
thanks

Which application was used to create that backup ? Veritas System Recovery ? Which error is displayed when restore fails ?
Thanks and Regards

it's from 2004 and called "veritas simple backup" - the error message is not a readable disk
I don't have the original sofware -- I am wondering if I bought it and then installed it on a pc if it would work

I have a question. What is the file extention of backup data? Is it *.BKF?
Regarding Veritas Simple Backup, it seems that it was a backup software for desktop. Veritas was not an owner for it in 2002. So we have no information now.
