❖
Back up your files to diskettes (or other removable
storage media) on a regular basis. Label the backup
copies clearly and store them in a safe place.
If your hard disk suddenly fails, you may lose all the data
on it unless you have a separate backup copy.
❖
Use Error-Checking and Disk Defragmenter regularly to
conserve disk space and help your computer perform at
its optimal level. Consult your Windows
system documentation for more information on these and
other utilities.
❖
Always use the proper procedure to power off the
computer. See
page 119.
TECHNICAL NOTE: The operating system records information,
such as your desktop setup, during its shutdown procedure. If you
don't let the operating system shut down, details such as new icon
positions may be lost.
