Answer: yes you can burn a cd with a dvd writer\n\nsecondly, windows xo has a built in feature whcih allows you to save your pc config, such as my documents, settings, desktop icons and wallpaper. to do this, look in start > all programs > accessories > system tools > files and settings transfer wizard, you either save it to a cd or copy it across a network to the new pc. you simply repeat the process to apply the config and settings to the new pc.
