I know that's a popular way to go but when the HD self-destructs,
you're dead. I don't think you can beat a full HD image saved on a
second drive or DVD. Different strokes.

I think we are actually in agreement. I make sure I save my
partition backups on another hard drive. With a boot manager like
BootIt I can boot from the current XP partition or from my backup
or from an earlier backup.

No - Just use the TrueImage rescue CD to recover the image on second
drive.
