Make a Backup of Your System
Some computers come with the necessary software
already installed for you to use the computer right
out of the box. Or, you may have installed the
operating system and software yourself. Whichever
is the case for you, remember to make a backup
copy of your hard disk drive software.
Do you need more hard disk space?
If your computer did not come with the utility and device driver diskettes, and you have already made
a backup copy of all necessary software using a backup program, you can delete any preinstalled
software you do not want to use to have more free hard disk space.
Run the backup program; then follow the instructions on the screen.
You can delete the demonstration program.
