Acronis True Image WD Edition or WD Anywhere Backup?

Whats the better backup/imaging program?  Acronis True Image WD Edition or WD Anywhere Backup?

If you’re looking to clone or image the drive, then Acronis.  Anywhere Backup won’t backup system files.

Can you walk me through how to make a exact image of my system using Acronis? 

I tried, but after doing a fresh install of Vista, I tried to load the image and it didnt work.  Acronis attempted to do it, and restarted as part of the “restore” process, but didnt work.  Im not sure what the problem is…

Unfortunately, I can’t.  For that information, you will need to search our Knowledge Base, or contact Technical Support.
