DELL Resource CD !

[hazard]

Dell computers have a option of burning a Dell Resource CD..
Start>All Programs>Dell Accesseries>Dell Resource CD.

Can anyone tell me what is it meant to do (The CD), is it a copy of windows or junkware or important drivers or backup ????

i think that one is your operating system, the reformat disk. i made one, and keep it cased because it only allowed me to make 1 copy, and yes it is my reformatting disk.

Cool, thnx Lejon

but i guess if the disk goes bad, u still can make another copy or atleast make a mirror image/ .iso of the already made copy

[gridtalker]

yes you can

if its a reformat disk for windows OS, then why do ppl call up suggest to call up dell for windows disk, why cant this be used

[foosa123]

i tried going to the "dell accesories" part in my start menu and "Dell Resource CD" isnt there. Why is that???

[hazard]

is it cause u might have reformatted ur system ?

Is it used to just reinstall XP, or is the like the hidden partition that restores your computer to factory default? I used the partition to restore once, but now it wont let me do it again. is it only able to be used once?
