Cheers chaps.. Captain that looks promising although it took a few reads to understand what he is actually doing
Will give that a go tonight. and if that fails, i'll give Winrar a try and if that fails I may have to take you up on your offer Burble.

Yeah, I didn't quite get it either, but then I don't have the software.

that didn't work although I'm still not convinced i'm reading that guys post correctly... But I tried lots of things simular to his discription.
Tried using Winrar too.. - no luck.. I just don't get what it's asking for?

7-zip supports a great deal more file formats I believe. How big is the backup file dude? I'm quite happy to take a stab at getting the data out myself, like Burble is

Hmm i'm not sure cos i'm at work.. Basically i have a partition called files which holds all my media, saved games and you guessed it .
I think the partition came to about 32gb but not sure of the compressed size. It fits easily onto one DVD. I also have a video of the mrs stripping for me (and a bit more) on our honeymoon.. which we acidently showed to our parents one evening.. I put it on thinking it was the trip video, went into the kitchen to make a tea.. then all i could hear was.. yewwwww.. and my mum shouted PAUL!!! you're disgusting haha lol. My dad ran out of the room into the toilet
