Posted July 1, 201212 yr FPCH Admin Good morning everyone, My second-hand computer (Dell Dimension 3000 Desktop running Win XP Pro [sP3]) did not come with a backup CD. From what I have read, there are imaging programs like Acronis & Shadow Protect which can create an image of everything, including the operating system onto a CD/DVD or USB flash drive which can then be used to recover the same computer if it should become completely unbootable. My question(s): Do imaging programs actually re-install everything, including the operating system itself? If not, where can I acquire a LEGITIMATE WIn XP Pro SP3 backup CD to use? Thank you for your time and any info! View this thread Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
