Back up install
 
I am trying to install my back up copy of Hoster and all my newly created KMA files on to my back up laptop. When I start the Hoster install wizard, I get to the screen right after I enter my e-mail and password info, and it tells me I need to save the info to my floppy drive a:/ ... I don't have a floppy drive a:/ on either of my laptops. The original install did not ask to make a (floppy copy). When I get to that screen and click next, the install will not go any further. What can I do to eliminate this screen from the back up install?
Thanks for your help

more back-up questions
 
Thanks for the input Bryan, I was able to load my back up laptop. My next question is about additional hard drive space on the back-up. When I loaded the kma files (3120 of them) the hard drive became fully loaded, and I mean fully loaded. I had to do a disc clean up, and had to remove a lot of programs including Office XP Pro addition, just to get them all on there. I know I won't be able to add any more tracts to this laptop's hard drive so my question is, can I get a usb external hard drive and operate the program from the resident hard drive and access KMA files from the usb external HD seamlessly, or will I have to delete the program from the resident HD and put it all on the external...(never having used an external HD before I don't know if it is even possible)
Any suggestions you might have would be helpful.

Most folks with laptops use external HD's for KMA's. It's best if you use the default path for Hoster install.

External drives have a greater tendancy to fail than internal drive, would highly recommend a backup external drive.
