Backup ASR diskette, Retore point

[Guest]

i have two systems with two different problems, Can anyone sugggest a
reason/remedy?

1. Windows XP Pro SP2 Norton AV: Will Do an ASR bckup and creates a recovery
diskette. When I try to create a restore point, Is says it's unable and to
reboot. when rebooted, same problem, forever.
How to create a restore point?

2. Windows XP Home SP2 AVG antivirus: Will Do the ASR backup but DOES NOT
create the recovery diskette, will create a restore point?
How to create a recovery diskette?

BTW; is the recovery diskette bootable?
Is there a better backup solution?

Thanks

Drive Imagining Software like Norton Ghost.

Yes they do, you can also have networking services from the bootable disc.

You can make an image to a CD/DVD, network location or another hard disk.

I use the network location. A back up of 20 gigs will take 20 minutes. To
restore the disk from the network takes about 30 to 40 minutes.
