    Will Ghost 2003 create a backup image of Vista? If not, what software should I use to create a backup image of my hard drive?

    I read somewhere that Ghost 2003 won't work because MS wants you to upgrade to Vista Ultimate.

    I don't know all the details on the licensing, but DiscWizard is a free download on Seagate's website. It is powered by True Image and works exactly the same. I used it with Vista Business. It worked just fine.

    Yup, used True Image.

    DW sounds cool if you have a Seagate or Maxtor hard drive, though.
