XP does not come with a disk spanning utility and
therefore you cannot fill one disk and then carry on to
the next. You have to buy a program that will do this. If
you don't want to pay for a utility then you can break the
copy of your system into 620MB files that will then load
to a 650MB RW disk. This takes a great deal of time and
effort but can be done. The trick is to know what to put
on what disk so you can do a proper restore. This is where
disk spanning( writing to multiple disks ending with one
and begining on the next) comes in. Good luck.
