If you are such a user maybe you've got a tip for desperate me!

I have XP on NTFS. I wish to image my single C: drive onto CD-RW. I've tried:
1) to image from Windows, without success: my CD-RW doesn't seem to be acknowledged.
2) to image by booting from a Win98 diskette which I've set up with the *oakcdrom.sys* driver. On checking at the DOS prompt I see that my CD-RW *is* recognized and my CD *is* accessed. But, when I load DriveImage with Diskette#2, I get told *Media not ready etc.* - obviously my CD-RW drive is not being seen by Drive Image

On installing D/I I didn't install the Iomega drivers as PowerQuest warn this might cause the problem I'm having.

Do I have to dump Drive Image shortly after purchasing it?
Pl. help if anyone has a clue.

There is an update to Drive Image 5 on the PowerQuest website. If you have not downloaded and installed it already, do so. It might solve your problem. Drive Image was hanging on my system. After I got the update, it started working.
