				Drive Magician.  You can set it to be a self extracting folder. 
 
 
Or just go to Win 7. I didn't have to install a single driver. _________________ For every person with a spark of genius, there are a hundred with ignition trouble. |

				I use Win 7 and every Sunday night it wakes my computer up and creates a backup system image on an external drive. It is continually updated as I update drivers and can restore my system from a  boot CD if needed.
 
 
I also use backup software (Seagate Manager) that automatically backs up all my documents every night while I sleep. |
