Which is the best program to "back up hard drive"?

[death]

Hello guys;

I was wondering which is the best program out for Windows XP Pro. to back up the whole Hard drive as image or other files. I heard "NORTON GHOST 2005" is pretty good. Had anybody had problems with "Norton Ghost 2005"?

Is there any other program out there? Is it worth backing up the whole hard drive? or I can just use "bootable Disks" to recover data.

Thanks guys.

back up info

There are so many ways to 'backup' you system. but what is the best way?
there is 'no' best way. Each system (person) is different.. I would suggest that you go to 'langa.com'. Search for backup and he will explain, the 'best' way to 'you' to back up your system.. I am sure you will find another great 'help' site..
