need reliable cleaner and ez way to back up first. Thank you



Grampy:

To do it right will cost you some money, vis:

Buy a USB backup drive. They come in 80-250 gigabyte size. Figure
around $100-$150 dollars.

Invest $60-or-so in either Norton "Ghost" or Acronis "True Image"
software. *Thoroughly* understand what the software does before you start.

Ignore the "Registry Cleaner" aspect. Simply not necessary in 99 out of
100 cases.

That's probably not the answer you were hoping for, but it is the "best"
way to do it.
