Hi all, I know this is going to seem like a simpleton question to you all but its something ive never had the need to do, so Ive never done it before. Over the last couple of weeks due to windows not booting and a system 32 error coming up I have needed to reinstall windows over 3 times, as you know it then takes a good hour or 2 on top just to reinstall all your drivers/software/settings etc. Just in case it happens again I would like to save an image of everything in windows as it is, eg working with all my drivers, software and game installs. Is there anyway of doing this in windows xp or do I need to buy 3rd party software to do this, I am currently using the norton antivirus 06 trial and there is a backup image option in the menu but is greyed out, I will be buying antivirus 06 later so will this then allow me to make a backup or do i need something like norton ghost?? Also if I manage to make a backup, would I be able to use/install everything by booting from disk if windows wont boot up or will i still have to install windows then use my image to get back all my settings/drivers etc? 
thanks all
thanks all
