Why, If your computer acted as a lab or something, (Especially if you keep tweaking with those registry entries) you can download some root-based file backup software, which is abundant in the net....

Try finding ones which loads on boot....usually they have the disk format tool there, which proves valuable if you didn't have any Windows CD....

Or just follow what Yuka's said. That is the only 'straight' way that is available to you....

P/S: No matter what type of sites, softwares or stuffs you put into your comp, with good maintenance and care, your computer won't go amok, seriously.

That is NOT true. I don't browse shady sites, I check all software out throughly before I install, and I run lots of anti-virus/spyware programs and such. Last night I downloaded ONE album of music and got FIFTY trojans.

FIFTY. Not even exaggerating. And those are just the ones my anti-virus caught.

And it was Mozart for God's sake. :|
