Creating BACKUP DISKS

4 6

When the computer fails to work properly or system files on the hard disk are deleted, the computer can be returned to factory condition by performing the “Reinstallation” procedure. Important: To perform the “Reinstallation” procedure, it is necessary to cre- ate a backup disk prior to any trouble.

A backup disk cannot be created after reinstallation becomes necessary. Therefore, be sure to create a backup disk soon after purchasing your computer, and store the disk in a safe location along with the supplied Windows 95 System Pack.
