Vista - Scheduling Backups in Vista Business Edition

After installing a second hard drive specifically for backing up the primary
(C:\) drive, I can manually run the full system backup feature and create a
backup on the new drive. I would like to have the full system backup run
automatically on a weekly basis but can't find any way of scheduling it to do
so. I was under the impression that there was some way of doing that or am I
missing something?

By "full system backup" do you mean Complete PC Backup? If so, you can do
this using wbadmin and Task Scheduler.
