Backing up configuration settings
Important
Run ConfigSafe (or a similar application) to take a
snapshot of your
computer configuration before installing an optional device. Using this
snapshot, you can view and compare the changes in the computer
configuration after you install an option. Also, if you have problems
configuring the option after it is installed, ConfigSafe allows you to
restore the configuration to the previous settings.
When you started your computer for the first time, ConfigSafe took a
snapshot of the initial configuration of your computer. You might be able
to use this snapshot to restore the configuration to the initial settings.
ConfigSafe is a part of the preinstalled software in your computer. For
more information, see the ConfigSafe help system.
