I am almost embarrassed to ask this question but . . . I have a new computer that has a "CD Burner" (wish it was called anything but Burner). I have not yet had the intestinal fortitude to use it to back up my programs. Will SKS please walk me through this process? I have two CD slots and no explanation as to which one I should use (they probably assume I know). (It has windows xp and outlook 2002). Floreda

I think that you might be wise to start with this website. Once through that, you will probably have all of the basics in knowledge to burn the first cd. It answers the questions of what, how, etc. http://www.cdrfaq.org/ Keith Thompson Varick wrote: > > I am almost embarrassed to ask this question but . . . > > > > I have a new computer that has a "CD Burner" (wish it was called > anything but Burner). > > > > I have not yet had the intestinal fortitude to use it to back up my > programs. > > > > Will SKS please walk me through this process?
