XP Proffesional, Backup on system with no floppy

[Guest]

Tried to backup using the backup utility that is part of XP Proffesional
(looks like it is Windows NT Backup). Seemed to backup fine unitl it got to
the end and said I didn't have a floppy so the backup file created can never
be used to restore the system. Any way to backup on a system that doesn't
have a floppy? I have DVD/CD burners, USB memory stick, etc. Just no floppy.
System didn't come with one and I don't think I have any slots left to put
one in. Any ideas?

Backup to a folder on the hard drive and then burn the backup file to a CD. NT Backup does not backup directly to a CD burner.
