This brings up a question and a problem that I'm having:
1. Can anyone recommend a third party back up that supports an HP Travan
tape drive?

2. I can use the XP Pro back up utility to back up my internal drive to my
external firewire drive. No problem. However, can cannot get it to backup
to my dvd RW driver. Any idea why not? I get an error message that the dvd
is not accessible and an incorrect feature.

However, Nero's back up feature will work. Why won't WixXP's backup utility
work with the DVD drive?
