Hi,

I have Windows XP Professional SP3 installed on my laptop with all the updates intalled. I have got many applications and settings in my system.

So what I want to know is that, Is there any way that I can create a bootable disc of my current OS state, so that if something goes wrong I can reinstall it from that disc and get my system back or uisng that DVD/CD I can install the OS, applications and all my settings on another laptop with the same configuration?

Please guide me :)

Depending how big it is you can try to make an image of your drive c and burn it to a DVD.

If its to big to fit on a dvd you can partition your drive and put the image on that partition or if you have another hard disk you can have the image on that one.

Linux as a free program to create an image.
