Posted: Wed Aug 04, 2004 8:41 pmWell, I USED to know. But not anymore. Sorry.
Backing up.
Posted: Wed Aug 04, 2004 8:44 pmMake a copy of the original file onto your floppy or writable CD incase you lose your original from the hard drive of your computer - that's having a back up file.<p>Edit: Oh, and just a precaution... if you have a virus scanner program, make sure you scan the floppy or CD for viruses BEFORE you make back-ups. <p>[size=small][Edit by ThePeaGuy on [TIME]1091653086[/TIME]][/size]

That's how it's done! I remember now! 
Just make sure the files don't copy as shortcuts. Mine did the last time I made a mistake.<p><blockquote><i>Originally posted by Lord Khyron</i><p>Thought you left Noah?<br></blockquote><p>Becky convinced me otherwise.<p>And I have nothing against you, Khyron. I just haven't seen you Online for a long time. AIM has been screwing me over and causing problems; like removing some of my buddies. I added you again, but for some reason, AIM keeps taking it off. 
<p>Also, LS told me that you PMed me. Am I right? Well, I really haven't gotten any PMs from you. Maybe the board's last infection took them out?

Posted: Thu Aug 05, 2004 9:22 pmDon't worry Ein, the kitten has more than enough cute for the both of you.<p>Also, a helpful but obvious tip: If you're going to back up your files, keep the back-ups in an entirely different building; it won't do you good if the house starts on fire and the backup disks are next to your computer...or if someone decides that they're garbage.<p>Usually, back-ups are only neccessary if you have valuable information. What are you backing up, Neo?

Posted: Thu Aug 05, 2004 10:23 pmUmmm....valuable information....heh heh.<p>Its a file for RO, Though, they just said to back it up. I wouldn't take my long to re download it if I needed to.<p>If the computer goes down with the house in a fire, don't expect to see Neo for a LONG time
