❖
Do one installation at a time. If you have several new
items to add to your computer system, install just one at a
time, creating Restore Points immediately before each
successive installation. This will make it much easier to
determine the origin of any new problems. For best
results, follow this sequence:
1
Back up critical data.
2
Create a Restore Point.
3
Install one item of hardware or software.
4
Restart Windows.
5
Use the new hardware or software for a while,
noting any new problems. Make sure that your
critical applications (e-mail, business applications,
etc.) are working correctly, and verify that
important devices are still functioning.
6
For each additional hardware or software item,
repeat these steps, starting at step 1 if any of your
critical data has changed, or starting at step 2 if no
critical data has changed.
