December 19, 2008, Newsletter Issue #147: Backup Your Laptop
Tip of the Week
If your laptop contains sensitive files you would like to have access to if something goes wrong, protect your information by making a backup. The main thing the backup should contain is a copy of your operating system files, as well as a copy of your system's registry. In this way, you will still have copies of these files if something goes wrong.
After backing up your registry and operating system files, make copies of other files that are important to you. This could include files in your Documents folder or located on your Desktop.
There are a few options to choose from as to the type of media you would like to store the backup of your laptop. Often backups are saved to cartridges, or a recordable CD or DVD. There is no point in backing up the laptop and saving this backup onto the laptop's hard drive, as this information can be erased if the hard drive ‘crashes'.
