152 If Something Goes Wrong Develop good computing habits 5 The Windows® operating system creates the Restore Point and automatically stamps it with the current date and time. Then, at a later time, you can re-establish your Windows® configuration using the saved Restore Point. To do this: 1 Click Start, and then Help and Support. 2 Under Pick a Task, click Undo changes to your computer with System Restore. 3 Click Restore my computer to an earlier time, then click Next. 4 A calendar will be presented, showing a month at a time. Each date for which a Restore Point has been set will be marked as bold. When a boldfaced date is clicked, a description of the Restore Point will appear in a list to the right. NOTE This list may contain Restore Points that you did not create. Restore Points labeled System Checkpoint were automatically created by the Windows® operating system. Other Restore Points may have been created automatically by applications when they were installed. 5 Select the desired Restore Point from the list, and then click Next. 6 Your Windows® operating system configuration will now be restored to the state it was in when the chosen Restore Point was created. Backing up your data to CDs with the Windows® operating system The most valuable component of your computer system is the data that you create and store on an internal storage drive. Since problems with either hardware or software can make the data inaccessible or even destroy it, the next most valuable component of your computer system may be a recent backup of your data. Fortunately, the Windows® operating system offers a convenient way to back up your computer or just your important files to optical discs or hard drives. An external hard drive is recommended in case your internal storage drive fails. No additional software is required. Most of the external optical drives that are now widely available can write to (or 'burn') as well as read from optical discs.
