    Resolved [RESOLVED] Using CD-rw to back-up Hard Drive

    What software is needed to back-up a hard drive using a CD-RW. I have an older (2 yr) Acer unit and the included software will not provide for the back-up. Any specific site I need to go to??

    Adaptec EZ-SCSI 4.0, or 5.0, will do the backup.

    If you have DirectCD installed, which allows you to use your CD-RW drive just like a big floppy drive, you could just use Microsoft Backup to do a full system backup to your CD-RW.
