Backup and Recovery in Windows XP Restoring to a Previous Date and Time To revert to a restore point (created at a previous date and time), when the computer was functioning optimally: 1. Select Start > Help and Support > System Restore. The System Restore window opens. 2. Click Restore my computer to an earlier time, and then click Next. 3. Follow the on-screen instructions. Creating Recovery Discs PC Recovery Disc Creator creates a set of recovery CDs or DVDs for the computer. Use recovery discs to restore the operating system and software programs to factory settings, in case of system failure or instability. ✎ Handle these discs carefully and keep them in a safe place. The software allows the creation of only one set of recovery discs. Note the following guidelines before creating recovery discs: ■ You will need high quality CD-R, DVD-R, or DVD+R media (purchased separately). ✎ DVD±RW/R and double-layer DVD±RW are not compatible with the PC Recovery Disc Creator software. ■ The computer must be connected to AC power during this process. ■ Only one set of recovery discs can be created per computer.
