I've installed fresh Windows 7 Ultimate (32bit) on my laptop. I've installed all the application/WindowsUpdates which I wanted to and my system is ready to use. All my other data is now on D: drive. I need to backup image of my system drive (C:) and want to be able to restore it whenever needed.

I want to back it up only once. I don't want to do scheduled backup and I will only restore it on this system.

Is there any free tool which can allow me to write DVD or back up image on an external hard drive or on my E: drive?

Clonezilla?

Clonezilla, based on DRBL, Partclone and udpcast, allows you to do bare metal backup and recovery. Two types of Clonezilla are available, Clonezilla live and Clonezilla SE (server edition). Clonezilla live is suitable for single machine backup and restore. While Clonezilla SE is for massive deployment, it can clone many (40 plus!) computers simultaneously. Clonezilla saves and restores only used blocks in the harddisk. This increases the clone efficiency

You can try the default Windows System Restore, but that is not as good as other third party software (Rollback Rx comes thru my mind now).
