CD-RW write protect problem

Hi, I can write to my cd/rw through Roxio project selector but I wanted to go through Programs-Accessories-System Tools-Backup and burn a backup of my C drive. I put the destination as my D drive and it tells me that the disk is write protected. How do I change this? Thanks, Carol

The MS backup program will not write to a CD burner. If I'm not mistaken, the newer versions of EZ CDcreator have an option to back up a hard drive. But Drive Image or ghost are the best.

You will not be able to back-up programs this way. The files needed for re-instalation (if required) will be missing.
Nortons Ghost claims to be able to do this. I have never tried it and it would take several 700MB CD-R's to complete (35 for my PC by my calculation).
