When I purchased my CD-R, it came with a program called FileCD.
This allows for formatting the CD-RW to be used like a 500M floppy...
A little quicker access that XP's CD writer program.
(Should be able to do a search to find it)

XP's rudimentary CD Recording program does not permit
backing up data
directly to a CD. You must create a new folder on your
hard drive, perform
a backup to that folder, then record the contents of
that folder to a CD.
