Backup Vista System
The new Backup and Restore Center in Windows Vista is one of its nicest little known features. Along with the ability to create backups of your important files and folders, you can create an image of your entire computer, which can be restored in case of a hardware failure.
You can back up to another hard disk, so it's super simple to install an additional internal disk in your computer or connect a USB removable drive and do a backup to it. The backup process is quick - I backed up both my C: and V: drives, which contain Windows XP and Windows Vista and all of the programs installed on each, in under ten minutes. And you can continue working while the backup proceeds.
