A version of Acronis True Image for drive imaging is still being offered free to Seagate/Maxtor hard drive users through the Diskwizard download here:
http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/sup...ads/discwizard
It will work on other drives as long as there is a Maxtor/Seagate drive attached and recognized, even by usb.
I've been using it on several computers with XP and win2K and it works well for me.
It also supports Vista.
And it's free!

Data Runner, ditch the red border in snip tool, the screenshots will look much better without any border.
Options>Untick "show selction ink after snips are captured"
Nice job otherwise!

Oh, and don't forget that Vista has a disk imaging module built right into it. Run the Backup & Restore applet in Control Panel and you can make a complete system image that can be restored by the DVD.
