Backing Up Files; Using The Scheduled Task Wizard - Gateway Tower User Manual

Backing up files

Backing up files and removing them from the hard drive frees space for new
files on the hard drive. It also protects you from losing important information
if the hard drive fails or you accidentally delete files.
You should back up your files regularly to a writable CD (if you have a recordable
drive) or to diskettes. Use a backup device, such as a recordable drive or Zip
drive, to do a complete hard drive backup. For more information, see "Using
a recordable drive" on page 111. If you do not have a high-capacity backup
device and you want to purchase one, you can contact Gateway's Add-on Sales
department or visit the Accessories Store at accessories.gateway.com.
