You can't.

Windows XP has no native DVD writing capabilities at all, backup or
otherwise.

I use and like Stomp's BackUP MyPC which does backup directly to DVD R/RW as
well as most other media.

Hi

XP Pro (nor XP Home) has any built-in DVD software. You will need to use a
3rd party program such as:

Roxio - http://www.roxio.com/en/products/index.jhtml
Nero - http://www.nero.com/en/Nero_6_Reloaded.html
