X-Cannon Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Hey guys how can you back up your computer so that if something really bad happens you can go back to that Image of you computer and make the computer run like that again? because I messed up my PC and finally got it fixed so I want to know how I would just save it and go back to it later opposed to installing and uninstalling everything THX for you time.P.S. I gotta stop asking stupid questions, I can find the answer on google but I'm so LAZY (Damn you T.V damn you) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mikex Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 I use the "back Up" util in xp pro. Sofar it work ok, make doubles of folders if I don't pay attention. Also I have this backing to a second HDD, just incase some happens to the drive itself. Have antivirus looking into backup, compressed, and sys restore. That paranoid security thing.This back up util can run when any file is changed, as most other prog can be configured to do this. Dailey, Incremental, Differential back up. Can't explain these in detail at present, fog on the brain.What OS are you running. M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikex Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Thing to do is to find what happened so it can be prevented in the future.Here are some utilities from a good site. I can't comment on how good any of these are.They are shareware or freeware so no money lost.M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
murtu52 Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 its called a save point, where your program takes a picture of you HD, and checks all files, folders, and saves. then, if you get a virus, mess up the registry, you just go back to previous save point, you're ok.

X-Cannon Posted September 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Doesn't your windows give you software that will back up your files? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
