I think Acronis may have another.
Acronis is branching out with all sorts of goodies, but the basic and
original package, TrueImage, will create an image of your system and
save it to a bootable CD. I haven't actually had to try a restore to
that extent, but simply using it to roll back to a previous state (like
GoBack and XP's System Restore) has worked. The danger, of course, is
the unreliability of CDs (I just spent a frantic couple of hours
searching backup CDs for a "lost" data file and finding several of them
unreadable.; fortunately, the file eventually turned up on my hard drive
after all!)
