That even helps me a little--I always backup to self-extraction .exe files because it's easier to work with. I do take full screen shots. I actually use PicPick, which works wonderfully and has an in-program editing software similar to Paint.NET. I need to just go ahead and start using it. Do you have others you suggest more than PickPic? Ashraf, thank you for the clarification. That even helps me a little–I always backup to self-extraction .exe files because it’s easier to work with.

You can use the CD, but I am certain you will need the program if you don't have the drivers as an .exe. So yes, the best way to do this is to actually save it as an executable program instead. I wouldn't suggest any other way, just because if it does crash, I am not going to want to find out once my computer is shot if it actually works or not. You can still save this to a CD, and if this is what you did, you will be fine. When your system crashes, just insert the CD and run the .exe file. But make sure you have done that and not just backed up the raw driver files off of DriverMagician. You may find out you need their product to get them back off afterward. Hope this helps!

It seems too simple. If my system crashes, all I need to do to retrieve drivers is insert the CD? I saw a comment on the GOTD site that mentioned cloning drivers to an auto-setup package(.exe) so that you can still get them back even if you lose Driver Magician. Is this what I have done?

Thanks for your work. ^^ In regard to Audio Recorder (And your comment on it), it seems to me it would be much easier to use a Youtube video ripper. http://mediaconverter.org/, despite its limitations, is a very good one: it's online, so you don't have to install anything, and it has a tirade of formats. Well, thanks. ;) I’m really pleased with all these reviews!

Thanks for your work. ^^

I did have to learn to pick up my feet a little higher after tripping on tree roots. The nature of a trail run allows me to vary my speeds and intensity in a natural way without contriving to do so. Trail running shoes are also a good idea for the extra ankle support and penetration protection. I always found trail running to be the most enjoyable form of exercise.
