The Boot Data Recovery disk is available as a download file (an
.iso file which needs to be burnt as an image to CD before use), or as
a physical CD which will be sent in the mail.
Put the CD in the
CD drive of your computer, ensure you have set your BIOS to boot from
the CD first, turn your computer off and then on again and this CD will
start to boot up your machine, taking you through a system test for 2 or 3 minutes, before arriving at a web browser window. Let it install automatically. You will see two icons, Home and System, click on the System icon to show your hard drive and the CD - click on the Hard Disk icon to bring up your files. There
is loads of help on the CD, but it's all very easy - if you have
plugged your USB thumb drive in another icon will appear, then it's just click and drag to save your
files to the USB stick. And while you're there, have a look around to see what else you
can do.
