Backing up your data

protect yourself against accidental data loss or the unlikely event of a
hard-disk malfunction by backing up your important files regularly.
To back up data, start the backup application as follows:
1. Click Start.
2. Move the cursor to Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and
Backup.
3. Click Backup.
Make sure that the Create a new backup job button is marked in
the Microsoft Backup window.
Click OK. The Backup Wizard will guide you through backing up
some or all of the files on your hard disk.
