I use Paragon Exact Image. They are MS gold certified for all Windows
systems.
This program is bullet proof, even you did something really silly.
You can still retrieve your OS with a bootable CD.
The programs finds all the operating systems on your HD.
You can fix it and you are laughing.
I bought Paragon Drive Backup and got Paragon Exact Image for Free
..
You can make your own bootable CD's or backup on an USB HD.
It supports lots of hardware even with no OS, and their recovery CD.
Exellent !
(I used to use Norton Image, but too many problems with that in the
past ....)
Cheers
