WINDOWS RESOURCE #1
XP SYSTEM SETUP & CONFIGURATION
These days most new systems come equiped with just about everything you need:
- A digital screen
- midi tower case
- wired or wireless optical mouse
- wired or wireless keyboard
- wired or wireless networking interface
- hard disks of 40 gb or more
- cd / dvd reader writer
- one or two video cards for gaming and tv / video
- home theater sound system
- scanner
- a printer for printing those digital pictures of today
- and enough processing power to build or design almost anything.
What most systems don't come with is someone to setup your system in a way that will make it easier for you as the user to safeguard
all of the emails, addresses, and data files that you create or collect from others.
That is why I decided to write this, for those of you who are interested or should be interested in setting up your system either
when it is new or at a time when you feel ready or after you have suffered a total loss due to viruses or power loss or whatever.
The presumption here is that after you setup your system in this way, that you will make the time to take a backup of at least the part of
the system that will be made much easier after following some instructions here.
If you don't think that this is saving you anything, then either you have a system as a decorative item around the home or office, or you
don't have any data (data are documents, drawings, financial records, songs, addresses, emails, email addresses for those of you that
don't know) worth saving.
Let's see, if I write one letter or email a day over 200 days or if I record a few invoices per day that are necessary for the tax declaration,
or I buy one song per day on the internet at $1 and I don't back that up, how much time and/or therefore money will it take to accumilate
all that again! I hope that you got the point.
If not, well I guess that you don't mind paying for a backup service.
The continuation of the setup configuration is not for network users that have backup procedures performed by the I.T. department.
