    Sorry, I'm sure this gets asked a lot, and I know its a rather easy function, but basically I want to create an image of my hard drive - because everything is perfect right now.

    Whats the best/easiest way to do this?

    System Tools > Backup Status and Configuration ...and follow the steps? Is that all there is to it?

    From what I can understand, this extensive feature is only available in Windows Ultimate - whereas I have Vista Home Premium.

    Is there a free, third party software that I can use to create an image file of my entire hard drive?
