The market is flooded and there seem to be loads of them out there, many of them free.
I'm looking for a decent drive image program that will save the image as a file on a USB hard disk and then restore the image onto another hard disk (either the same size or larger).
Ideally one that will work with Vista and XP images, I'm more than happy to download a CD-Rom ISO that boots into any OS to do the job, providing it works.
I've got a friend who's got a PC with a 12Gb HD in it which is creaking at the seams. I've got plenty of HDs here but can't bear the idea of performing a complete re-install.
With the activation nightmare that comes with Vista, I also want to install Vista, Office 2007, activate them both and then store an image in a secure location, as reinstalling now always ends in a call to India!

And in case anyone's wondering - I left the mailing list on principle in 2002, and have only just come back because in recent weeks whenever I've had a question I've had to ask Mark. I'm going through a series of major upgrades at the moment and I'm emailing him twice a week now, which is a little unfair.
