You can re download through web site just make sure to but activation key and receipt is safe place. I put mine in the Disk holder I keep all hard disks in.

If I remember correctly, this is the one where the software company for it went out of business. If it gives you a name, look it up on the net to confirm. I sent it back.

No you need a new board, no way to download new software other than new board

Im not sure. I had the computer for a few hours and returned it because the system wasnt fast enough for me and kept on freezing.

same happened to me, I just got tired and threw it out. I thought the disk was empty, but it is some kind of software for windows 95.. the whole thing is junk

No, because you need a hard copy in the CD drive in both computers for the software to run.

You need to format the drive before use. So if you have some files on it, you will lose that. Beware!!!!!

I think the computer crashes too often. When you use it for a while, opening a bunch of programs, it just dies and restarts by itself.

That depends on the kind of failure you have on your external drive. If the drive has died, then nothing to do. If the drive works, then you should be able to recover. I rather do that connecting the drive to a PC directly.

You may be able backup the programs only if you know where everything is (Registry entries, Initialization files along with all needed executable/dat files). It wouldn't be a clean install though. I recommend reinstalling the programs on Win 7. As for the Data it will work just fine. Once you have backed up all your data and reinstalled everything, restore your data on the clean system. Then create a new backup with everything (Data and Win 7). It's actually easier than it sounds (the recommended way that is!). I hope this helps.

Yes, that's pretty much how I was seeing it... the only problem is that one day the SmartWare backup software screwed up when I logged in, and everything I had been backing up had vanished. I reformatted the drive, deleted SmartWare from my computer, and am now manually backing up at the end of the day, as I was before. I loved the instant backup function of the software, but I can't trust it now.

Mine did not but there is a way to download a recovery file.I have been happy with my computer. It really has not given me any problems.

I believe you can just download the software BUT if something happens to your machine and you need to reload it on a new machine before the year is out, I think you'll be required to buy another license. I prefer to actually have the disc so I have options at a later date.

Yes it looses all data. However if you really want to keep your data just write it down and program it in later

I haven't had the problem, but it sounds like maybe you did not make a backup dvd of your OS system, Microsoft offers a one time down load in chase your pc crashes. Maybe go to another pc and see if you can do the down load the software with your pc info, it's worth a try with the price of new OS software. Hope every thing works out for you.

Nothing, your laptop would just see a new device. It won't lock automatically. You have to install and setup the software before any functionality is present.
