I have Windows XP Home Edition and I am trying to do a backup of My documents and settings. I have loaded the original XP disc as required in order to instal the Ntbackup file. The problem is that backing up process does not complete through insuffficient space on the CD (-RW). This is perplexing as following formatting the CD 567mb is specified as being available. What I am trying to copy to it is only 255mb. Any ideas as to why this might be? Also why does a CD sold as 700mb on allow for 567mb following the formatting process?
I have done backups before using the Sonic software that came bundled with the package. This has never given any problem. Also Sonic does not ask for the disc to be formatted. Am I missing something here as well?
