windows xp ntbackup can't format a cdrw or recognize cd-r
to backup up to. If you have easy cd creator or some
competitor that can drag a drop to the cd, then ntbackup
can use the cd-r or cdrw, but it can't span over
multilple cds. That's the fall back. If your serious
about backing up whole computer system, system state and
all. I would use stomp backup mypc. It formats and
regonizes and cd-r or cdrw formated disk. And can span
over multiple volumes. You can find infortion about
backup Mypc by searching for stomp backup MYpC on the
internet and purchasing it there. Or you can download it
free from kazaa.
