How to Perform a Complete Backup Copy of a Computer
Performing a complete backup copy of your computer is an extreme measure, but it is one that is sometimes necessary. The best time to perform a complete backup is immediately after installing your operating system and favorite programs, providing you with a "snapshot" of your computer in an ideal state, allowing you to return anytime you choose in the event that your computer contracts a virus or other problem.
