Find and insure it it TURNED ON --> All programs --> Accessories --> System Tools --> System Restore ( it works great for me on every thing I have tested it for...even why you can not boot to Vista - boot to DVD use RESTORE - Cmd function with :

I know that some pc have a recovery partition on them.I have deleted mine to make room and have recovery disks.For some reason the vista gods will not let me have a functioning restore .
Most apps i have seen are for xp or older and some have alot of hoops to go through.

most 3rd party have lots of hoopes... and IMHO - suk not worth the $$$$. I have tested and found Vista backup-restore is about as easy as any of them them...
