Backup

I have yet to backup my computer. Will it backup my pics too? Do I have to
save a copy of the backup on CD also?

Thanks

Yes, it will save pics too. You need to backup to a different drive than
C:. Backing up to a different partition on the same drive does no good so
it needs to be a completely separate drive or to shiny media.

In general, you get to choose what you want to back up.

Do I have to
save a copy of the backup on CD also?

There are no "have to"s and there is not necessarily an "also." You
have a choice of several different media you can back up to.

Here's an article I wrote recently that will give general guidance on
backing up: http://www.computorcompanion.com/LPMArticle.asp?ID=314
