Hi Kevin, I'd be intrested on your thoughts about the one click free program you suggested. I have been using Akronis true image but I have found that to be quite buggy. I am currenlty using the in built backup facility in windows 7 ultimate. but for that you need to use the windows 7 setup CD to perform a restore which s not accessible. With akronis true image you can start a restore from within windows and then it reboots to complete it.
