Useful Advice - Make a Windows System Repair Disc

If you have Windows 7 (and I believe also Windows Vista) you can easily make something called a Windows System Repair Disc.

This disc may be useful if ever Windows fails to start and you want to try to fix it.

The disk is easy to create and anyone can do it.

In Windows 7 click on the "circle" in the bottom left (to get the Windows menu) and in the small "search" field type "System Repair Disc" (note the "C" at the end not a "K").

This will display an option called "Create a System Repair Disc". Click on this option and a small window is displayed.

Follow the simple instructions (you will need an empty CD or DVD) and your System Repair Disc will be created.

Keep it in a safe place as you may need it in the future if your computer fails to start.

You can use this repair disc to "boot" the computer if it wont start in any other way, and from there can select various repair options.

To find out more go into the Windows help and search for "System Repair Disc".
