❖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 Disk Defragmenter to conserve disk space and help your computer perform at its optimal level.

❖Before turning off the computer, always use the Turn Off command (unless you want to use Stand By or Hibernation mode as described in “Powering down the computer” on page 91).

CAUTION: The operating system records information, such as your desktop setup, during its turn-off procedure. If you don’t let it turn off normally, details such as new icon positions may be lost.
