you can use the five step process in this forum or as I have done for years,keep my data and music and service packs backed up with a cd burner using nero. and a copy of my operating system. the disadvantage of windows is that it is very easy to get infected if you are not careful.oh also a copy of ie6 sp1 for older systems.the advantage of windows is that you can make it like new again by lowlevel formatting and reinstalling.except for xp because you will run out of activation times. now i am sure you will get a response now!
