After hearing of so many horror stories of having to do full windows installs etc etc

I now have a decent Anti Virus after finally managing to remove Norton

I run a back up of my Data on a regular basis


But I don't seem to be able to sus out how to back up Program and System so I can restore from it

Any pointers

EMC Retrospect should allow you to automatically backup the whole machine, including the OS side of things. It certainly works in the Mac version, I upgraded my iMac's HD and used Retrospect to restore the backup to the new drive without issue.
Other backup software will probably do the same thing.

You could also look at Norton Ghost to create an image of the entire drive, which would allow a full restore.

Cheers I will check those two out
