I have an older Dimension 8200 w/XP Home version. I want to make a back-up
disc for my current files using the OS program. However, it wants to use
the original Drive A/ floppy. How do I change the drive designation so I can
use the E Drive which is a CD burner?

If you are referring to Windows Backup:

"Windows Backup does not back up to CD-R, CD-RW, or DVD-R devices"
