I recently upgraded to Win XP. I had been able to use the
backup application to B/U files to my CD RW. Now when i
launch the B/U and try to use the CD as the media. An
error message comes up that says I need to have the proper
rights. Although I am the administrator on this machine I
can't seem to be able to use the CD as my B/U target.

Any insights or suggestions??

Hi David,

A CDRW is not supported by the backup tool. You will need to either use a
different medium (tape or other hard drive) or a different backup program.

Backup to a folder on your hard drive, Then burn that to a CD.....
The built in backup in
X-P does not support burning to CD... Hope that helps. Butch
