Answer Line: How Do I Restore My Windows Registry?

Easy Network Backups

Ed Anderson of Syosset, New York, suggests a fast and easy way to back up multiple PCs that are networked together (for instance, via an Internet-sharing router): Simply back them up to each other. It's faster than backing them up to CD-RW or other removable media, and if the PCs all have enough extra space on their hard drives, it's cheaper as well. Should the hard drive on one system fail, your data is safe on the other computer. Anderson uses Iomega's QuikSync for his backups, but the same technique should work with most backup programs.
