Most of the time, I would think, NO. But... some System Restore disks will
actually have a full version of the OS on it. So, the best way to do this is
to do a search on your System Restore CD and search for VALUEADD. If the
backup is in there, it should be under that folder.

So, if you only have a system restore disk that came with your computer, you
cannot get the backup feature with win xp right?
