Creating an Emergency Repair Disk
You should create an Emergency Repair Disk after you finish configuring the system. The files on
the Emergency Repair Disk can restore a damaged registry to its original contents (that is, at the
time Windows NT was installed), along with the standard Windows NT drivers.
Use the
RDISK
.
EXE
utility or InterSite Welcome (as described in Chapter 2) to create an Emergency
Repair Disk. You can also use these utilities to update the Emergency Repair Disk any time you
change the system’s configuration. You should also make and keep a backup copy of the
Emergency Repair Disk.
Refer to the operating system documentation and Help for information on creating and using an
Emergency Repair Disk.
