Dear All, I am facing a delimma! I did a nero backitup season I started the "file" backup and took the below mentioned items. 1) My documents 2) Outlook PST files 3) programs data after backup I discovered Nero BackItUp2 did 34 seperate .nba files each one with around 1.9GB of size. When I tried to restore everything went fine nd restore completed 100% except for one small problem! My outlook.pst file was 5GB of size when restored it was only 500MB! I opened the .nba files with WINRAR and checked the .pst file was split into 3 .nba files in total the size was 5GB as the original. And I tried to restore more than once and more than one option nothing worked to restore my 5GB .pst file!!! I need assistance if my PST file is lost then I might lose data of 4YEARS! I also tried installing nero 8 instead of nero 7 with backitup 3 instead of 2 it couldn't even see the backups! I need assistance any other solutions to restore .nba files instead of nero?? Anyway to extract my 5GB pst file?? Regards, AJ

Hi your dilemma just deepened to a crisis if what ive gleened off the net is correct , pst file have a max size of 2 gig unless you were using 2003 version. email nero support team and see what gives http://www.nero.com/enu/support-con... may be of use later http://www.brothersoft.com/e-mail/m...

1stepbeyond Appreciate your reply I managed to fix it and restored the 5GB pst file :) I also did archive and compress methods on it so now it's 2.5GBs and no in office 2003 and beyond it's normal to have larger than 2GB pst files it will only cause slowness and hard ways/methods of backing up. Thanks alot Regards, AJ

hi was there a specific 'cure' or just a restore issue with nero? (seems every week nero version moves on a few numbers) :)
