... How can I create a back up disks on Windows ME, in preparation of an upgrade to XP. What, precisely, do you mean "backup disks"? Backup of Data? Installed programs? On Floppies? CDs? |

(Copy/Move to external location.) - Export your email. - Export your contacts. - Copy your documents, pictures, spreadsheets, drawings, favorites, bookmarks, databases, saved games, presentations, taxes, money management files - everything you want to keep. - Copy/move anything else important to you. You know - all the stuff you should be periodically backing up anyway - because the hard drive could die, the computer could burn up - all sorts of bad things could happen - thus why we make backups. 2) Use a disk cloning program to replicate the entire drive.
