[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1290155, member: 141969"] I think that this is a good practice (y). (I backup my system far less often :eek:.) Over recent years I have got the impression that an MP system does not like to be repeatedly put to sleep or hibernated over the course of several weeks, and eventually some sort of operating system error occurs. So rebooting the system once each week may help to forestall this. But this may depend on what hardware and other software you use -- some hardware or software may be more prone to errors than others. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
