If you’re worried about having problems upgrading to Windows 7, then maybe you should try out Acronis True Image Home. The latest 2010 version supports Windows 7, and allows you to restore a full image of your hard drive at any point in time i.e. you could take an image of your hard drive before installing Windows 7 which you could restore if you have any problems.
The full version of Acronis True Image Home 2010 costs $50, but there’s a free 30 day trial so you could always signup for the trial on October 21st one day before Windows 7 launch and then uninstall it in November if you no longer need it….
Apart from backing the full system, you can also choose to back up particular folders or files. The software also enables you to create bootable media to back up or recover the system using a CD or a thumb drive. If you just want to recover a few files from a backup, you can also mount the backup file into a virtual drive and copy data from it using Windows Explorer.
The new version of the software adds a few new features, including online backup that costs $4.95 per month for 25GB or $8.90 per month for 50GB, and Nonstop backup that automatically backs up any changes every five minutes.
