Backup failure; Bad clusters

[stupidbitz]

I was creating a system image backup last night and it failed because of bad clusters. Now i have 11 DVDs that were part of that backup. Do I have to start all over again?

The answer is probably yes. I suggest:
1) Do a chkdsk on the HDD you are imaging.

2) Do not use DVDs. They are slow and error prone media for this operation. I know external HDD cost some money but they are really the way to go.
