You can almost certainly backup to CDs with the CD burning software
that came with your computer. Check the program's Help file.

Every computer sold with Windows has to have a method of restoring it
to the way it was when it left the factory. This is done either with CDs
or DVDs or with a separate partition on your hard disk. Ask the computer manufacturer how it works on your computer. Warning: The restoration process erases everything on your hard disk.

Hi,
I am not very computer savvy, so bear with me. My processor is making
funny noises. I need to back up everthing on my computer to CD's, I
think. The problem is when I bought the computer, the Windows XP was
already installed, so I don't have a disc. I cannot find anywhere on
the computer how to do this. Any help, please. Thank you.

Hi again,

I told you that I was not computer savvy, now you know why. The noise
is coming from the processor cabinet. It sounds like it is struggling
to run. It has stopped making the noise for now but when I went on to
the board early on today, it sounded like it was going to quit running.
I don't know much about the processor or driver or fans. I just don't
want to lose any of my data on the computer. I read on a web site about
backing up your data for Windows XP with a disc that came with it. I did
not receive a disc, Windows was already loaded on the computer. All I
have are System Recovery disc's. I need to know how to back up my whole
system, in case my driver or what ever it is breaks down. I thought that
I could just back everything up on CD's. I could really use your help
if you have the time. I know it must be frustrating to talk to someone
with a little bit of knowledge but not enough to explain the problem.
Thank you again.
