Key Takeaway: ASR is a recovery option that has two parts: ASR backup and ASR restore. You can access the backup portion through the Automated System Recovery Preparation Wizard located in Backup. The Automated System Recovery Preparation Wizard backs up the system state data, system services, and all disks associated with the operating system components. ASR is a last-resort feature to use before reformatting your disk and re-installing Windows XP Professional. You should use ASR only when Windows XP Professional cannot start in normal, safe, or Recovery Console mode.
