Maintenance tips the experts use 1/2
Eventually you will want to plan an orderly reinstallation of Windows for
performance and stamina. Okay, it’s a nuisance, but a planned reinstallation is better than having it forced on you by sudden failure.
Follow our simple survival plan and Windows should live to a ripe old age. Here’s how to help ensure that
doesn’t happen.
1. Disaster recovery usually starts with an emergency startup disk, so make
one now! Go to the Startup Disk tab of Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and follow the prompts. Write-protect the disk afterwards.
2. Install an anti-virus software and keep it up to date. InnoculateIT is available from www.cai.com.

3. Configure your BIOS to make the PC boot directly from drive C:. This will prevent accidental
virus infection from a dodgy floppy left in the A: drive.
4. Use a backup program every day. Even if it only saves important data files between major backups, and
even if it’s just MS Backup or a batch file copying important data to a partition on another drive, that’s a million times better than nothing. Always make such a backup before installing a new program, defragging the disk or repartitioning.
