What is the best backup software currently?

I want to backup my main c: drive with operating system and installed programs, as well as my other drives with home movies and stuff.

So what would be my best option incase of a system failure?

Thanks

I'm not sure about the best, but I believe Norton's Ghost would be a viable option to back up your drive. Also, if you have a CD or DVD-rom, you could back-up all of your movies and stuff to those in case of failure.

As new guy said, ghost is a good one. Drive image is another.

If i were you i would back up data to seperate disks on a weekly/daily basis. "movies" "music" "text" etc.

I've got both Drive Image and Norton Ghost. The user interface for Norton is pretty "Soviet" but I find that it is faster and I use it exclusively. A Ghost image is the perfect "UNDO" when I install software or hardware that messes up the system.
