Vista - Drive Image Software

I'm running XP Pro and Drive Image 7 (excellent), Symantec Bought out
PowerQuest and immediately stopped supporting Drive Image so, in
anticipation of migrating to Vista (eventually), I'm looking for another
drive imaging app. I will *not* use Ghost or any other Symantec product so
I've narrowed my choices to Paragon's Drive backup and Acronis' True Image.
Any recommendations?

Use Acronis.

Image for Windows or BootIt (which adds a boot manager)...

Excellent on-line support. Inexpensive. Well engineered.

Either TrueImage HOME 10 (latest version please) or TrueImage Workstation 9
(latest version please).

For Acronis TrueImage, go visit their forums and make up your own mind
based on what its users are saying about the product and what problems
they are having with it.

Acronis -- Excellent Program.

TrueImage HOME 10.

CLEAN...

An excellent companion to PerfectDisk.

Caveat:

I'm using them on XP Pro.

I have restored my Vista partition (on a dual boot system with Windows XP)
dozens of times in the past two months, after testing and tossing various
applications. I have never had a malfunction.

If you get Vista Ultimate or business it has imaging software built in & it
works great.
