I just tested Driveimage XML, which is free and able to image most NT XP Pro / 2003 partiton types...
"DriveImage XML is an easy to use and reliable program for imaging and backing up partitions and logical drives. The program allows you to: Backup logical drives and partitions to image files Browse these images, view and extract files Restore these images to the same or a different drive Copy directly from drive to drive Schedule automatic backups with your Task Scheduler Image creation uses Microsoft's Volume Shadow Services (VSS), allowing you to create safe "hot images" even from drives currently in use. Images are stored in XML files, allowing you to process them with 3rd party tools. Never again be stuck with a useless backup! Restore images to drives without having to reboot. DriveImage XML runs under Windows XP Home, XP Professional and Windows Server 2003 only. The program will backup, image and restore drives formatted with FAT 12, 16, 32 and NTFS. Since this program is currently distributed as freeware, we don't offer phone support for it. Please direct any questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] " http://www.runtime.org/dixml.htm worked very well for me. Especially as Ghost didn't support Server 2003 (when I tested XML) and it runs from a bartPE or winPE windows Bootcd Matti > > > > John, > > We use snapshot.exe from http://www.drivesnapshot.com. > No bells and whistles, but simple, reliable and flexible.
