Automated System Recovery in Windows Home Edition.
Window Xp Support Tip.

if you have Windows Home Edition, you can create
a System Restore Point to help you if you need to recover
or restore your computer system back to a certain point
in time. But what if you use Windows Professional Edition?
You should employ the Automated System Recovery Wizard
to help you restore your computer system when disaster
strikes. The Automated System Recovery Wizard will walk
you through the steps of creating both a backup set and
a Recovery Disk (floppy). To use the Wizard, follow these
steps:
1. Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories ->
System Tools -> Backup.
2. When the Backup or Restore Wizard starts, click on
Advanced Mode.
3. On the Welcome tab, click the button at the bottom
next to Automated System Recovery Wizard.
4. This will start the Wizard, which will prompt you for
the media to use for the backup file, after clicking Next.
5. If you have a tape drive installed, this file can go
there, but you can also write this file to a hard drive.
This is the fastest method, but it also requires lots
of free space. A writeable CD will work, if the CDRW software
allows it to be access via a drive letter.
6. After entering the destination for the backup file,
click Next again, and then Finish.
7. The Windows Backup utility will copy all of the
important system files and settings to the backup file.
An estimate and status bar is provided, as this step can
take a considerable amount of time. After this step is
complete, you will be prompted for a blank, formatted
floppy disk. Several files are written to the disk, and
then the process is complete.
Remember that this process will only help you restore
your computer system - you will need a separate plan for
backing up your data files (for instance Word documents,
MP3s or spreadsheets that you have created).
