HOW to Create a rescue disk to use if you need

Did you create a rescue disk when you installed Windows?If not,
or if you can longer locate it, you may want to make sure that you have
one on hand, in case a technical problem (usually a problematic new
programwhich you just installed) prevents your computer from booting.
Here'show in Windows:

1.Insert a blank (empty) formatted floppy disk in your floppy drive.
2. Open your ControlPanel, accessing it through My Computer, or
throughStart,Settings.
3.Double click on Add/Remove Programs.
4. Open the Startup Disk tab, and click on Create Disk.
5.Allow Windows to create your bootable floppy disk.

6. Also, open your Windows directory, and copy your Windows
registry files -- system.dat and user.dat
7. When done, label it as your bootable floppy disk.
8. For extra security, make TWO bootable rescue disks.
9. Test them out. Turn off your computer, then place your rescue
disk in your floppy drive, wait 30 seconds, then turn on your
computer again. You shouldbe able to boot into Windows.
Enter in the SAFE mode to troubleshootfurther.

read the bootlog.txt file in your root drive. Be careful not to alter it
as you read it!
