this really doesnt seemed to work on my hp laptop.I dont know why but i had to install a program called wakeup...(something something).and i hate bloating my laptop.But the software seemed to work.To be fair i use windows 7 but i followed the same protocol over and over checked every setting possible but didint work.(for people who are intereseted the software named WakeupOnStandBy google it.Dont let the name mislead you the software lets you wake up from hibernate and sleep.)

How do you do that last one (MyDocuments backup), but instead of overwriting everything each time into the backup folder, only backup what is different between them?

Thanks for the video.  To back up My Documents, I've been using SyncToy--didn't realise xcopy could've been used instead.
