    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)

    Yah , that's right . It backs up system files or personal files or even the whole partition to an image file . Whenever you get in troubles just restore that file and everything goes back to normal states .

    I've got Nero 5.5, but I've got a feeling it's been around for a while. It's under "File" - > "Burn HD Backup..."
