I haven't had the need to restore, thankfully. But, when the backup wizard starts, you get the choice of backup or restore. So, I guess that if one had a complete system failure, you could run the backup/restore utility from your Windows CD. For more detailed information, I suggest visiting www.microsoft.com and searching on XP backup. HTH Norma
