Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for preserving saved memory states to which a computer system can be restored are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the systems and methods intercept write operations to protected memory locations and redirect them to alternate memory locations. Embodiments of the systems and methods include creation of a table for each memory state. Certain embodiments additionally include a recovery capability, by which the protected memory in the computer system is capable of being restored or recovered to a recovery point that represents a saved memory state. Further embodiments relate to systems and methods for preventing protected memory locations from being overwritten that utilize a plurality of memory state values.

Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide for the protection of protected memory, for example, a hard disk, in a computer system. The systems and methods are configured to re-direct read and write access commands from locations in the protected memory to alternative storage locations. The systems and methods provide the ability for the user to accept or reject any BIOS changes that are to be made to the computing system. In addition, the systems and methods protect against operating system crash due to missing or corrupted files. The systems and methods are additionally operable to recover mistakenly deleted or damaged application data from a hard disk level, as well as to protect the operating system and data of the computing system against virus penetration. In other embodiments, the systems and methods are operable to provide for a security lock to the computing system and its associated data.

Abstract: A substrate cassette having a conventional form, an open container having an upper entrance and a narrow lower opening formed by two side panels and two end panels. A preferred embodiment includes a train of substrate alignment channels on the inner surfaces of the two side panels, each channel is U shaped and having planar surface with a left surface, a right surface, and a bottom surface. An arcuate curbing member disposed on a left surface in each of the substrate alignment channels. The arcuate curbing member includes a top end with a thinner sloped profile facing the upper open entrance of the cassette allowing a substrate to slide through and under a stepped lower end.
