Hi Everyone,
I recently got an Acer Aspire 5515 for school and it has vista. My question
however is about backing it up. When I first got the system it instucted me
to create back-up cd's so I did. The is also a D: drive that has nothing on
it; it's factory name was data. Dose this mean it's the back-up data drive
(I have an app that loads that will write a backup file to D:) and I should
run my backuper software?

Thank in advance.

How many Gigs is the size of that D: Drive?
Recovery drives are normally between 7-9Gigs.
 
You have one Hard Drive partitioned into 2 parts.......C where the Operating
System is and D where you can store
your personal files or install new programs to.
Being it is only one HD I would not be backing up to D...if the HD were to
crash you would lose
the ability to recover your backup. Backup to external media like CD/DVD or
better an external hard drive.
