backing up files

Guest · Feb 20, 2006

I know you're supposed to go to accesories and then go to system tools...and
it should be there, but it's not...so i was wondering if there is any other
way to back up my files.
Thanks

its only there is XP Pro...not XP home. you can burn them to CD which is the
equirvalent of backing up.

other than that, get a back up software package.

Not quite correct. Backup is installed automatically on XP Professional, but
not on XP Home. If you have the complete XP Home CD, find backup on the CD,
in \ValueAdd\MSFT\NTBACKUP and install it yourself by doubleclicking the
file ntbackup.msi.

If you don't have an XP CD, you can download ntbackup.msi at
