Summary: Norton Ghost
Comment: It worked well backing up a notebook with a failing hard drive and then restoring the image.

Summary: Norton Ghost 15 (loser!) vs Acronis True Image Home 2010, TIPS...!
Comment: I happily used ATI (Acronis True Image) for years with XP, and ONLY used it for full image Backups/Restores (I beta test Security Products, and a 30yr software tech).
I upgraded (?) to Win 7 (32), and needed new Image Backup Software (ATI had growing pains with Win 7 at first)
I "Mistakenly" went to G15 (Ghost 15)!

G15 worked pretty good for normal Backup/Restores, but when my HD (Hard Drive) crashed! It would not copy my Validated Backup to my new HD!?-
G15's "clueless" outsourced free chat tech support was no help, and wanted to "upgrade" me to paid/no-guarantee support? NOT! Grrr! Full System Restore!

There was no way to post comments on the G15 backups, so you look at the dates & try & remember the system state...? ( In ATI you create the Backup, go to Recovery, and Right click on the new file/Edit Comments/Detailed...)!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
BTW!- WD (#1 Western Digital) & Seagate both have free downloads of basic ATI (Backup/Restore only, which is all I like anyway!- Browse their websites!), but you MUST have "one" of their drives installed on your system (mix is OK, but I had Hitachi, and since "upgraded" to WD Black on my laptop!)!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I then upgraded to ATI trial, but it did not have all the available features of paid/registered.

NOTE!-I don't like the Incremental File/Image Backups on either G15 or ATI!-
Every time you defrag, they see this as a file change!- Backups recopy & Quickly become HUGE/SLOW!
Only do New/Full backups (I keep last 3, and 1st after a fresh System Restore!)!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"My" 100% Tried-n-True ATI Backup/Restore Procedure(adapt for G15 too, and I'd Print/save... it!!)!-

- For Backups- I fresh defrag "after" a fresh no-activity reboot.
I wait 8min, then defrag (all files are released). Free MyDefrag is GREAT, but you MUST disable Win defrag (same with most Any 3d party defrag!), and then two no-activity 4min wait reboots!

-Wait 4min & "temp disable your AV!", wait 4 more min (HD light has now stopped flashing?), and do your Backup/Restore!
Wait 2min after every closing of ATI, for the first no-activity reboot (it's slow to release files!).
-For Backups- Wait 4min, and do a normal reboot. Go into Recovery, Right click on the new backup, and Validate/Reboot!

-For Recovery- Wait 4min & do a Reboot
Wait 4min & Shutdown (not many system changes are "fully" complete, until After a cold startup!)!

Note!- "After" you have registered "either" Trial, be sure & go into Tools, and cut a New Emergency Boot CD (In case your HD crashes... Trial CD will not copy to a new HD!).
~~~
On a new HD copy..., if you ever get a message about a bad BOOTmgr...!-
Reboot from your Win CD/Repair System..., and Repair Start Up, "3" separate times!

Done!
~~~
Yea!- I know This is Very time consuming, but it works "100%" for me (learned it the Hard Way!)!
Sure Beats a System Restore!

Summary: Worked great - EXCEPT
Comment: The product eventually worked for me... but getting there was not a joy... initially the backup would not record... after too many hours with tech support and too many "try this... reboots"... I managed to muddle my way through it... now product works well... just hope you don't need technical support...

Summary: Great Product at Great Price
Comment: I have ver 14.0 but needed 15.0 for windows 7. Believe it or not, I would have been more expensive to but the upgrade right from Norton. Basically I left 14.0 on the other machine and used the 15.0 version purchased here for my new machine. This full version of Norton 15.0 was also more expensive from Norton as well as everywhere else I checked.
