Win XP Backup

Hi Guys I've been gone for a little while.

Question: can I use the Backup utility that come with Win XP Home to back up to my CDRW?

I'm getting an error when I try this. Maybe a trick to it??

Thanx

The only way to do it with the XP backup is to make a backup on the hard drive first, then copy the backup file to the CDRW. It won't access the CDRW directly.
