Outlook backup & Roxio Create a CD 6?

[Anjie]

Hey guys,

Started a really cool new job, but....my computer is an absolute mess. It is a new pc but it is miserably slow and a horribly unorganized HP pc. I need the E-mail option in my outlook, but it is not set up for E-mail. My boss said that I can gladly get it lined out only they can not find thier old copy of MS Office. So they have purchased a new version of office. I want to install it on my pc but I want to insure that I do not lose my contact list as it is very extensive and it would not be fun to add them all over again. I would also like to be able to back it up in the event that this stupid PC crashes or something. The computer is also equiped with an HP CD-RW drive but there is no software on it to utilize it. I would like to set up Roxio's Easy CD & DVD 6 on the system but want to make sure that HP CD-RW drives do not have compatibilty issues with the program. So if anyone can tell me how to back-up my outlook contacts and let me know if Roxio's is compatible with the HP drives I would greatly appreciate it.
