Only you could answer that, a lot depends on which version of Vista you have as I believe the complete backup program is only part of certain versions of Vista, I have heard that it works very well though.
Acronis also has a good reputation but I haven't actually used it so can't give any opinion either way.
You're best bet is to do some research and find out as much as you can about both programs to see which would fit the way you use your machine.
Hope that helps

just to add to Joan's reply,
looking at your system specs...
complete drive backup would be available in Ultimate but not in Home Premium whereas Acronis would work with both.
also this test although not current may provide other options

hope that helps
