Restoring Your Work; Preparing For Communications - Toshiba Satellite Pro 6000 Series User Manual

HINT: Backing up all the files on your hard disk takes a
considerable amount of time and many diskettes. You may
prefer to use a high-capacity backup system, such as an
external tape drive.

Restoring your work

To restore information from your backup media to your hard disk,
use the Restore page in the backup program. Look in the online
Help or your operating system documentation for information on
restoring files.
TECHNICAL NOTE: When restoring files, the backup
program prompts you if you try to overwrite a file that
already exists on the hard disk. Make sure the backup
version is the one you want before overwriting the existing
file.

Preparing for communications

To connect to the Internet, use an online service, or communicate
across the telephone lines with another computer, you need:
❖
A modem (supplied with your computer)
❖
A telephone line
❖
A browser or communications program
❖
An Internet Service Provider (ISP) or an online service if you
plan to use the Internet
Before you can use the modem, you must connect it to a standard
voice-grade telephone line. See
