Backing up files
Backing up files and removing them from the hard drive frees space for new
files on the hard drive. It also protects you from losing important information
if the hard drive fails or you accidentally delete files.
You should back up your files regularly to a writable CD or DVD (if you have
a recordable disc drive) or to diskettes (if you have a diskette drive). Use a backup
device, such as a recordable disc drive or Zip drive, to do a complete hard drive
backup. For more information, see “Creating CDs and DVDs using Nero
Express” on page 123. If you do not have a high-capacity backup device and
you want to purchase one, you can contact Gateway’s Add-on Sales department
or visit the Accessories Store at accessories.gateway.com
.
Using the Scheduled Task Wizard
The Scheduled Task Wizard lets you schedule maintenance tasks such as
running Disk Defragmenter and Error-checking.
