Recovery Disc

[porkchop]

What sort of a recovery disc for computer is necessary. ie. is it DVD+R or CD-R etc etc. I am a little confused. Thanks.

Probably a DVD, either a DVD-R or a DVD+R, your PC will support both.

You will need more than one though, probably 2 or 3

I answered then had second thoughts.

It really depends on what sort of recovery disk you are making.

If you are making a single Windows recovery disk (where it says something like "make a system repair disk") then I think either a CD or DVD will do.

If you are making a SET of recovery disks, so your complete Windows system is backed up (where it says something like "Create a System image") then you will need a few DVDs, maybe between 2 and 4.
