- i was wondering whether there is any software available for
- the pc which will save the state of the machine (running
- windows 3.1) before a shutdown so that when i boot up again
- it will bring me back to the exact same state (same applications
- running with files open).
-
- what it would have to do is save the all of virtual memory onto
- a file and restore the memory upon boot up. it would also have
- to restore the state of the video, disk driver, and any other
- cards connected to the machine.
-
- i think that this software would be very useful for those of us
- who do not leave our machines on all the time.
