Can anyone suggest a software to back up windows manually. I am fed up with virus & spyware, adware etc and I need to frequently format & install windows and other drivers & essential softwares, which is very very odd. Inbuilt system restore is attacked first and thus of no use. The software could have following capabilities:

1. Manual Backup - When I feel that PC is clean after fresh installation of windows, drivers & essential softs.

2. Backup to HDD [other partition] or external media like DVDs etc.

3. Should have option to format atleast drive C: while restoring this backup. If backed up to DVD disc, then it should be bootable.

4. No incremental backup required.

I shall be greatful, If anyone can guide me to find such bachup software.

Thanks in Advance
