i hope this guide can help u RoboX: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/4241/how-to-create-a-system-image-in-windows-7/

been trying it out on Lenovo machines last week but it wasn't good bcs of Lenovo's so called "crap" they also put in xD

Was going to post the same link :) It's an awesome feature in Win 7, recommend it after intstall and device driver install, and before installing software and external drivers.

Hard to understand the question. You can save the image to another disk, then restore it using this proceedure:

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/7702/restoring-windows-7-from-an-image-backup/
 
I need to backup the windows,data,programs (A) installed in the hard disk n.1

I want to use the feature(restore windows image) of windows 7 installed in another drive (hard disk 2) , so of another windows 7 (B) started up.

So, Can i startup windows B (installed on hard disk n.2) and use the feature to create an image of windows A (located on another drive, Hard Disk n.1)?
 
i use acronis true image
 
Yea, Acronis is nice as well I've used it many times. You can't go wrong with either.

Good question... Dunno if Win 7 will think it's been installed on another PC because of a different HDD and ask to be activated...?
 
Acronis has the ability make an image of an install, then make it "Universal" so it can be installed on any new system, Hardware independent.
