When I attempt to backup my system via the wizard I specify the location of
my cdr drive and I get the message "The backup file file name
(E:\Backup.bkf) could not be used, please ensure it is a valid path".
I am using XP Professional.
I would appreciate any help.
Geoff.

You will need a third party backup program, such as BackUpMYPC (Stomp) or
Retrospect (Dantz) to backup to an optical drive.
