Whenever you install a new program or device driver on your computer,
you should first create a system restore point to safeguard against
any problems which may arise due to the program or the device
driver. Creating a system restore point allows your computer to
be returned to the healthy, functioning state it was in just prior
to the installation. To create a system restore point for your
EN computer running Windows XP follow these steps.
| How
to create a System Restore Point |
- Quit all
running apps
- Go to Start...
All Programs... Accessories... System Tools... System Restore
- At Welcome
Screen, click CREATE A RESTORE POINT... click Next
- Name the
Restore Point.
- Ex: Before
I installed PageMaker
- The date
and time will automatically appear in the Restore Point so
you don't have to include these in the name.
- Click Create.
How to go
back to a Restore Point:
NOTE: This will
only restore system settings...not any lost data.

running apps

Programs... Accessories... System Tools...System Restore.
- At select
a Restore Point, choose APPROPRIATE Date... click Next

sure it's what you want)

is complete, Windows restarts using the settings for the date and
