DriveImage XML
If you're using Vista Home Premium, you're missing out on the backup program built into Vista Ultimate.

Through it you can easily restore a failed disk with the operating system, files, and settings running as they did before the crash.
An unpolished-but-free way to add this feature to Vista Home Premium is DriveImage XML from Runtime Software.
