      I wasn't aware that Gparted could create disk images. Ive used Partimage for Linux partitions and have found it a very useful tool. You can get it here:

      Acronis is the best imaging software but it's not free.

              IME, avoid Acronis. Very over priced, even if it makes coffee.  ::)

              The Gparted program I mentioned earlier can make a good backup of the windows XP OS partition and any windows data partitions. It should NOT be used on Vista and Windows 7 boot partitions.

              There are some good video tutorials about how to use it for managing and making copies of Windows disk partitions.  8)

              Anybody who does not to get ripped off my the expensive partition tools should fist check out the Gpartd tutorials.

              It can't. but that's not what he's trying to do:

              GParted does disk to disk copy.
