How do I do a system backup of Vista Home Premium to an external USB hard disk? I know that CompletePC Backup only comes with the upper end Vistas. Can I download it from MS somehow? Does Ghost 10 make a reliable backup of Vista?
Thanks, Tom

The only "download" would be to upgrade to a higher version of Vista.
A cheaper alternative would be to use a disk imaging program that's Vista compatible. I'm not familiar with Ghost 10 as I use Acronis True Image Home v11 for my imaging (about $50 US)
