Hi there,
Unfortunately Windows XP's built in backup program has a bit of a
limitation in it, that is it can't back up to CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R drives.
See this support article in Microsoft's KB for more details:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q315255.
However, you still have a few options. You can instead have the backup
program write the backup to somewhere on your hard drive by clicking
the browse button and choosing where you want to place it. Once that's
completed, as long as the backup file is less than the capacity of the
CDRW you can copy it to the CD right from Windows explorer by dragging
and dropping it into the drive.
Another option would be using a third party backup program, nearly all
of which support writing to CD's. A good one seems to be Backup Plus
(http://www.backupplus.net/), but there are many others out there. A
search on Windows xp cdrw backup software
(://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=off&q=windows+xp+cdrw+backup+software&meta=)
brings up many different programs.
Hope that helps solve your problem! If not, please feel free to ask
for clarification and I'll be happy to continue looking for you.
