SystemSave and Selective
QuickRestore User Options
Increasing Storage Space on Your Hard Drive

Your computer comes with SystemSave and Selective QuickRestore software
already installed on your hard drive. By installing these features on your hard
drive, Compaq has made it easier than ever for you to save your personal files
and information and protect them from corruption or damage. With
SystemSave you can conveniently perform a backup of all the information in
your C:\ partition (the main portion of you hard drive) in approximately 10
minutes. Then, with System Restore, you can quickly restore this information
should anything happen to your computer.

Selective QuickRestore allows you to choose a Full, Selective, or System
Restore. With Selective Restore, you can replace individual applications and
drivers if they become damaged. These files can also be updated with the
Compaq Service Connection, ensuring that you always have the most current
software on your system. For more information on these options, please see
the Service and Support section of the User’s Guide.

Should storage space on your hard drive become limited (i.e., you do not have
enough space to install a software program), certain files in the SystemSave
section of your hard drive can be deleted. Deleting these files will not affect
the way your computer normally functions and can provide some additional
space on your hard drive. You will also be able to use certain features of the
SystemSave and Selective QuickRestore applications.
NOTE: Compaq recommends that you do not delete these files if possible.
