Just reinstalled the OS on my mates teenage daughters laptop, it will get infected/ fall over again so whilst its got a clean install on it I would like to take a restore copy of it.

Any recommendations for free utilities to do this?

It has a dvd writer I think, will check the toshiba website after its run through windows update.

I think norton ghost does it, i doubt its free but may get a free 30 day trial

nlite will allow you to make an XP install disk, with all necessary drivers, updates, service packs etc.

So you can do an hands off install
