Yes, it sure is but you may want to use third party backup software, I
don't have much faith in the Vista backup as I've never had to use it.
I've been pretty happy with Acronis True Image and can highly recommend
it as it's worked for me, they're here:

There is other software that will do the same, Google will find it for
you.

I should have mentioned, if you think you like what you see, go to
[url]www.amazon.com[/url] or [url]www.newegg.com[/url], they'll both give you a better price
on the software.

iqon,

I too highly recommend Acronis True Image (v10) with Vista. Have used v9
with WinXP for a while now.
