Update program for WinXP system

Does anybody know of any program on the market that will give me the capability to backup my Windows XP system using CD-Rs?

Thanx in advance,

Norton's Ghost is a good one, also Windows XP also has a built-in backup utility that will do what you want.

I can't get the built in one to work with CDRs. Would the harddrive images Norton Ghost makes revive my computer to its previous state AFTER a complete reformatt?

What I have found as to be the most reliable way to backup my system is to buy a cheapo 20-40gb HDD and install it. Then use MS backup to backup to that drive. That way you always have a bootable backup if something bad happens. If you think that 20-40gb is not enough, it sure isn't with me, I only backup MS stuff cause the backup feature is not that reliable with MP3's and so forth. Backup those files seperatly on a CDR or CDRW.
