Save your work frequently.
Your work stays in the computer's temporary memory until
you save it to the internal storage drive. If the network you are
using goes down and you must restart your computer to
reconnect, or your battery runs out of charge while you are
working, you will lose all work since you last saved.
See "Saving your work" on page 101
HINT: Some programs have an automatic save feature that can be
activated. This feature saves your file to the internal storage drive at
preset intervals. See your software documentation for details.
Back up your files to external media on a regular basis. Label
the backup copies clearly and store them in a safe place.
It is easy to put off backing up because it takes time. However,
if your internal storage drive suddenly fails, you will lose all
the data on it unless you have a separate backup copy. For more
information, see "Data and system configuration backup in the
Windows® operating system" on page
for further information.
