"Sam" The best way in my opinion is with an imaging application. BootitNG is an excellent shareware one that also includes partition and boot management all in one application. You can create a set of bootable dvds that you can use to completely restore your system from a catastrophic crash. The backup application in Vista only backs up certain types of files.Lee

Complete PC Backup is only available in Business and Ultimate Editions. You would need a 3rd party solution such as Acronis True Image Home to make a complete image of your hard drive. Jane, not plain ;) 64 bit enabled :) Batteries not included. Braincell on vacation ;) "Sam"

I was surprised to learn that Vista Home and Home Premium does not support the complete PC backup and restore function. How we call a software as OS and it even unable to backup and restore itself? If Vista Home or Home Premium having problem by any reason then users has to reinstall Vista and all related applications and patches? !@#$% Is there a software company in the right mind would treat customers in this way?"Sam" wrote:

"DWong" No operating system I know of to date has ever offered this ability. Use BootitNG.

"Lee" Forget the worry. Just get Acronis True Image 10. It works and I have used it to restore my Vista setup already.

I have dual boot system with XP on the first partition and Vista on the second one. Restore works great if I restore each partition separately or the whole HDD at once. It is possible to try how Paragon Drive Backup 8.5 works for free: drivebackup.com/Now I'm waiting for Paragon Hard Disk Manager 8.5 release. I'm using their products for 3 years and absolutely pleased with it.
