Acronis TrueImage works well. You can make a bootable cd with it. Then
get an external hard drive because you need a place to store the image.
Once you get your laptop set up the way you want, boot with the Acronis
cd and create the image, storing it on your external hard drive.

I use Acronis also, and I love it. But, I believe that there is an option
within Ghost to do the same thing (create a bootable CD). Maybe a search of
the Ghost website will show you how?
