How to use automated floppy disk

Hello.

Here are step by step procedures on how you can back-up your system using an automated floppy disk. But take note that these procedure applies to Windows XP Professional.

1.       Format your floppy disk.

2.       In System Tools, start the Backup program by clicking next button on the Backup and Restore wizard window.

3.       Click Restore Files and Settings, and then click Next.

4.       In the “What to Restore dialog box”, select the media that contains the ASR backup.

5.       Expand the Automated System Recovery Backup Set that corresponds to the ASR floppy disk that you want to create.

6.       Expand the second instance of the drive letter that contains the system files. Expand the Windows_folder/Repair folder.

7.       Click the following files from this repair folder: Asr.sif and Asrpnp.sif, and then click Next.

8.       At the Completing Backup or Restore Wizard screen, click Advanced.

9.       At the Where to Restore screen, set the Restore Files to: dialog box to Single Folder, and then set the Folder Namedialog box to the root of your floppy drive, for example, "A:".

10.    Click Next. The other options in this wizard are optional and do not affect the transfer of files to the floppy disk. When the wizard is finished, the files are copied to the location that you had previously specified. The ASR floppy disk is ready for use in the event of an ASR restore operation.
