What, for 80GB ???????
Nick, it's prob best to get another hard drive. Although I would imagine a lot of your stuff on there is applications etc. so what you need to back up is a lot lower than 80GB. I would suggest copying any pictures, music etc over, with any zip files of applications you use. Means then that if your C:drive (main hard drive) crashes, you have all the software installers to hand to get things back to normal.
Although don't rely on it - I'm finding that out the hard way, for a 6GB HDD. I have over 1000 mp3's - that the data recovery program has taken out of all the folder structure, and renamed file01.mp3, file02.mp3 etc. Means I have to go through each one, listen to it, work out what it is, rename it and put it in the right folder...
