What are you guys using to image your hard drive and then restore the image if you have to reinstall?

Acronis True Image here. We use it at work so figured I'd do a search for it and found a download fairly quick and got a hold of it. Really awesome software, and fast, and it's straight forward to use. It will even do images over networks, so you don't need to have the image file stored on a local HDD to do an image, nor do you need to have a 2nd partition to save the image when imaging a drive. Mind you, over a slow network, like 10mbps usually you'll get corruption, but never had issues at 100mbps.

Yeah, once you get it, just install it on any PC then use the option to create a boot CD, it's really all you'll need.
