There is a facility within the Windows Resource Kit which can be installed from the Win98 CD that will allow you to make a copy of an installation and all its' settings - it is a program called BATCH98. Unfortunately this will only work for the Windows98 system itself and not for any other installed software. You can configure the Operating System to your needs and then create a .INF file containing all these settings which can then be installed on any computer. An ordinary backup of your other software plus the Registry should cater for the rest. -- Tipster Please remove XX from reply address Patrice Dauphinais <dauphinais@videotron.ca> wrote in message news:tPcH3.980$jN.56033@wagner.videotron.net... > I would like to know if it is possible to create some kind of Restore CD of > my System.
