...restored. It restores the standard applications, too. I did it once in 2005. Some virus got to the PC. I lost data and images.

Per your advice, though, I would make a C: and a D: and put the applications and data on the "new" D:, right?

I could probably deal with Xithras idea well. I have a backup routine that pulls my images and data off--I keep them in special folders in "My Documents". The applications reinstall themselves when I do the restore function. I would have to reinstall my mapping programs and Outlook, which is about all I have added.
