Hello, while I'm not at all an HTPC noob, I am when comes to AVRs. I've not had the money most of my life that would allow me to get these and speakers on top of buying HTPC stuff.

Thanks, but I already use acronis for this and have already mentioned that I create OS backups. The issue is that I cannot just create a backup of my system every time I make a small change. Incremental backups of the software are needed for future deployment to other HTPC systems in my house.
