My only option under removable media is the floppy drive.

Eventually I want to network the 2 computers and that will be my option for
running FAST but this backup needs to be done in advance of wiping clean
both computers and then setting up the network.

Thank you!! I'm off to try!!

XP cannot natively burn to DVD. As you've found out the FAST program cannot
save to CD or DVD media. That is by design. Save the file to your hard drive
and then burn the file to CD or DVD using your favourite software. Nero is
good for this. Or try one of the work arounds here

It's looks OK so far, I ran the FAST Wizard, saved to Desktop and Nero is
burning it to DVD as I type.
