I'm into making music and i have recording software thats not compatible with windows vista at all. So i have to install windows xp pro. I was wondering if it was possible to save my limewire video and audio files to some kind of disc for buring to cd when i install the xp?

When i click on explore in limewire a new window pops up that has everything that ive downloaded in it. i have over 100 files. what would be the best way to back everything up? how would i go about doing it? I was told that once i uninstall vista, everything on my comp would be gone:-(. I would hate to lose vista but i have to because my recording software is not compatible with it and wont have an upgrade untill next year.

all help would be greatly appreciated.
