    Hi,
    All my previous Vaio's came with a restore portion on harddrive. As of for now, my Z has Vista on it. I'm upgrading to Windows 7 soon. Is there a way I can create the same exact thing so that whenever something happens, I can just restore the whole computer using VAIO restore center?

    I use Acronis True Image which also allows for incremental backups.

    Try installing VAIO Recovery Centre from the Recovery Discs and see if what options it gives you.
