Back Up Files
Defragment Hard Drive
You should back up your files on a regular basis.
As you work with your system, you create work files that are typically saved to
your hard drive. You should make a copy of these files to use as a back up in
case your hard drive stops functioning properly. Use the network connection to
make back up copies.
The system provides different options to back up your files.
•
Use an external USB CD/DVD-RW drive (provided by you) along with the
backup software supplied with your system.
•
Use a network connection.
Before you copy your files onto DVD, make sure that you have enough blank
DVDs to hold the files. The DVD-RW drive supports both writable and
rewritable DVDs.
For instructions on how to use the backup software supplied with your system,
use the online help included with the program.
You should defragment your hard drive regularly. Select Start > Programs >
Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter to open the utility included
with the operating system. Follow the instructions included in the operating
system online help.
