If you can't use PowerQuest DriveImage because you don't know how to what
makes you think you will be able to use any other drive imaging software?? A
program can't read your mind and magic wands won't work!

There are good ones that are also free

AntiVirus - AVG6 from www.grisoft.com
Also a very good one (that I actually use) on a year's free trial (then
$9.95 a year) from http://www.my-etrust.com/microsoft/

Anti-Spyware - basic AdAware from www.lavasoftusa.com
and there are others - read up a bit at
http://www.aumha.org/a/parasite.htm

Firewall - www.zonelabs.com for Zone Alarm free version

And general system information free Everest Home edition from
http://www.lavalys.com/index.php?page=product&view=1

What I use is Image for Windows - from http://www.BootitNG.com ($27
shareware - 30 day full functional trial)

That allows you to make a compressed image of a partition (using its
associated PHYlock even of the one it is running under) to either:

A File set on a separate partition

A separate device - CD or DVD. sets, including external drives on USB or
Firewire. I use DVD-R where one disk will take around 7GB or so of
original data after compression. The disks are then bootable to allow a
restore
