I think u can use "winzip 8.1" to backup ur data in CD-RW discs. It can split ur data into segments.You can specify how much memory each segment will have(eg. 750MB ).Go to site "www.winzip.com" to download one.

all you need to do is select copy in easycd creator and select the c: prompt - that should copy all of the files you have on the C drive - before you do though, unhide all files - just make sure your files fit onto the CD - if not select portions only such as program files at first and then all of the other folders onto another CD. Hope this helps !
Get a copy of Norton's Ghost or Power Quest's Drive Image software.
It makes drive back-up much more thorough and reliable than trying to manually copy files. If you use WinZip and your system crashes, how will you un-zip your back-ups?
I prefer Drive Image myself. It allows me to set the size of each back up file to fit on CDs if desired.
