Computer Safety -  How NOT to crash your computer
 
Crashing a computer or losing all of one's important data files are among the most feared circumstances of all computer users.  This month's presentation focused on the all important (granted not very sexy) part of computing that we should all practice -- preventive medicine for computers. 

The main highlights were: 

  • Hard drive maintenance (Perform Defragmenter and Scan Disk about once per month by Clicking on the START button, then Programs, then Accessories, then System Tools)
  • System and file backup
  • Ant-virus protection
As promised, at the meeting, below is a brief description and a file available for downloading to backup up the important Windows 95 Registry and configuration backup.  Download and use it today. 

Thanks to all who attended the April meeting, and we look forward to seeing more of you in May!
