You wrote "My 'SYSTEM TOOLS' window does not have BACKUP as a choice.
Please advise." and I answered your question.

Ntbackup has its own detailed help file. You can also find help on using
ntbackup in these places:

1. Open the Help and Support Center (Start > Help and Support) and search
for: backup. Read the article entitled 'Backing up files and folders'.

2. "Windows XP Backup Made Easy" (This information is still current.)
