... Try Central Point Backup for Windows. It will backup in the
background, but its a memory and resource hog!
 
It also takes up a lot of space, and will write tapes in a proprietary
format unless you specify QIC format in a window of a window.
 
Make sure you have the DOS version (They package both together some
times) in case your HD fries and you want to restore a tape you made
with CP Backup.
 
Hope this helps
