On reloading XP most of my data was saved but all email, internet with their data and some other programs were lost. So how do you create an image safely? Also can someone tell me how to back up my email messages?

Hi Peter
Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with you image attempt what software did you use? Here is a link for Email Backup in Outlook Express http://email.about.com/od/outlookexp...ok_Express.htm
you can find how to do this for any mail client in google. As to Image software I have used Ghost at TAFE which is good but you just about need a Doctorate to get it right the one I use now is Paragon HDD manager I have attached a document with their details in it hope it helps. Any more help I can provide please ask. I think that the Paragon software is very easy to use and will see you right. Let me know how it goes
