Make the updated recovery CD

I have a Compaq Presario SR1620NX who has files of recovery is in a box partitioned hard disk. The OS was originally XP but with all windows updates, it is now XP sp3. The computer has recently had a critical error and I had to do a system recovery. It took all day to get the updated system to its modern configuration. My question is, can I do a recovery cd or dvd that would recover the computer to today's configuration and if so, how?

Thank you

Yes, it is possible to make using "recovery DVD" imagery of disc or disk cloning software. Just do an internet search for "clone a hard drive" or "imaging a hard drive", as there are so many choices freeware and selling retail. Read the information you find and choose the one that best fits your needs and your budget.

  • make the updates for 1000's of models

    I have updates to make to my a few models thousand illustrator and I have no intention to make them 1 by 1.  Question: can I run actions to take care of all the updates that need to facts... I'm getting hung up on the "save under" I want these files to re-record as their current file in the same folder or in another folder name (doesn't matter to me), but models Illustrator open with a file name of "Untitled 1" "Untitled 2" etc etc... ".  I don't want to go to retype each individual file for all these files name.  The name of current file information is stored in the meta data section in "file info"... but I can't understand how tell illustrator to get this info and save a new file to commandeer for me.  Honestly I don't know anything about the scripts, or I guess this process is incredibly easy.

    Any help you can offer would be much appreciated... or I'll have hours and hours of type file names in my near future

    Thank you!

    What happened to just rename "commandeer" ".ai", and when you have finished rename them back.

    If filename model you differs from the metadata one, you need a script to do it, something like below

    (function (){
    var fileType = '*.ait';
    var aitFiles = Folder.selectDialog( 'where are the .ait files', '~' ).getFiles(fileType);
    filesLen = aitFiles.length;
    for (var i=0;i
    

    Edit:

    And the other. It's much better because you don't need to open Illustrator files first.

    (function (){
    var fileType = '*.ait';
    var aitFiles = Folder.selectDialog( 'where are the .ait files', '~' ).getFiles(fileType);
    filesLen = aitFiles.length;
